The white one is 100% cockerel.

The white boy there could be a White Langshan based on the single comb, leg feathering, and body shape (Langshans are supposed to be U-shaped with head and tail held high).

This is my hatchery-quality Black Langshan cockerel (looking a little ratty at about 5-months-old during what is probably his final juvenile molt).

I would have gotten both Black and White Langshans, but Ideal only carries the Black and I wanted Ideal Langshans because they are, at least theoretically, supposed to be the Croad type with the chance of purple eggs.

Oh my purple eggs!!

Being brown with a heavy bloom.

The Ideal Langshan hen I had in my in-town flock laid a sort of pink-brown color but they were pixelated, not evenly pigmented.

This color wasn't a fluke -- every egg she laid was pixelated like that.

Thank you! How can you tell if theure too young? I'm sorry I'm asking A LOT of questions but I'm very very new to all of this

The red one's comb and wattles are small and pale. When a pullet comes into lay, her comb/wattles are bigger and red. The rest of your birds look a little older.
