Splash Ameraucanas... hens or roos?

These guys are about 2 months old.

The rounded feathers and little comb development give way that they are both pullets.

Thank you!

Thank you!

You're welcome!

Anymore pics of them? It's still early enough that hackle and saddle feathers wouldn't be a good sex indicator

Those combs are pretty red for eight weeks…

I'm guessing roo with those red combs! I have a splash ameraucana too and her comb was non-existent at that age (and still pretty hard to see at 10 months). Photos are her at 8 weeks for comparison!

I would also say I'm suspecting possible cockerels, just from the amount of red and the size of the combs. That's quite a bit for only 8'ish weeks.

I'm thinking cockerels, but they are one of those breeds that I really struggle with.

At eight weeks, my Easter Egger pullets had a similar pink color in their comb, but that might have just been the ones I bought.
