Sex my chick

The buff one is a orpington roo...his comb and waddles are larger..and more red around the face. Black one..roo to..same thing...larger comb/waddkes than on hens
 
I can't tell all the way because it is so dark in the morning but I think the black one is crowing.

More chance of a rooster then. I had a pullet (henna colour) called henny because we thought "he" was a hen. Later on he was mating A LOT! And he was crowing.
 
I bought 20 pullets this spring for eggs. I did not want chicks n the future. One of them turned out to be a rooo_O. They r hard to rehome out here in the country..im to softhearted to eat him...dang it! Oh well..i free range the hens part of the day...hopefully he will step up and protect the hens and warm his keep

Having a rooster or cockerel doesn't mean you will have chicks; it just means you can. Collect eggs daily and you'll be fine. :)
