Standard Cochins, Pullets or Cockerels?

[JABehrens]

Normally I’m pretty good at this but I’m not sure. These two are 4 months old. No crowing yet. Pullet or cockerel???

Two cockerels.

They both look like pullets to me, the one with the larger comb being closer to laying. But I would check with @Overo Mare first

Two cockerels.

Lol, see that’s exactly why! I can’t sex a chicken to save my life.

Do you see it too, @OneHappyRooster?

I'm not 100% on this one. I do believe I see male color and saddles peeking through the fluff though.

I'm seeing two cockerels as well

 

[The Happster]

Yep, cockerels.

My only experience with Cochins are bantam partridge.... which I believe are easier to sex bc of the colorful plumage

The bantams are just easier all the way around. Partridge would absolutely be handy to sex early.
