Sex of Buff Brahmas?

[paxfarms]

I've got two Buff Brahma's that I'm trying to determine the sex of. They are 13 weeks old. Please comment what sex you think they are and why you think that. This helps me (and others) learn what to look for when sexing this breed of chicken.

The pictures of the first chicken are named "1a", "1b", and "1c". The pictures of the second chicken are named "2a", "2b", and "2c". The picture titled "Both" is both chickens facing each other. They are lying down so I'm not sure if that picture will be of any help or not. If you need additional pictures, just let me know.

Thanks in advance for your help!

1a

1b

1c

2a

2b

2c

Both

Both are cockerels, you can see pointed hackle feathers coming in and darker buff (some pointed) feathers across the shoulders.

Well, based on the color of the comb and wattles, as well as the size, I’d say you have a boy and a girl.

However, some pictures cause confusion, because 2A looks different from 2B and 2C.

Based on the bottom picture of both birds, the left look female while the right might be male

EDIT

Also, Brahma are very large birds so it can take a bit longer to be sure of sexing.

Both are cockerels. The dark orange patch on the upper wing "wing bar" is a male specific trait.
