At about what age can you tell if they are pullets or cockerels? They are only about 2 weeks old now, so I'm sure to early, just wondering what I should be looking for.
Thanks!
 
The roos are "hen-feathered" which means there's no difference in their appearance at all. The only difference is the comb as the bird matures. The comb on the male gets more pronounced and a "spike" grows at the very top, back end of it.
 
My 6-8 week old has a massive rose comb compared to the pullets of the same age I saw. So definitely before this age.
 
They are 2 weeks, and both of their combs are barely even visible, so I'll give them another week or two and post pics.
Thanks!
