I have 3- 14 week old silver laced Wyandottes. I bought them all as sexed pullets but really starting to wonder if they actually are. No crowing as of yet but they look quite roo-ish. All help and input is greatly appreciated. Also they hate me and refuse my love lol.

The chickens in the background are year old barred rock hens....so you can see how big the slw are...rather large haha

definitely hens. And also, roosters start crowing fairly young (much younger than that)
 
Do they normally have that red of wattles and Combs at 14 weeks? So many people kept telling me that they are roosters or at least one of them was a rooster for sure

Do you know how old they are when they start to lay? Lol that will tell me for sure that they are hens! So many people have called them roosters
 
I think they are both hens. If one looked at all rooish, it would be the one on the right, but i still think that they are hens. Some hens just have a little bigger comb. Hens usually start laying at about 18 to 20 weeks.
