Apologies for pic quality, they don't stop moving very often. I have two little ones that will be three months old next week. They look pretty much identical to one another, The father is a black Orpington (in my avatar pic). I think the mother is too. Are they cockerels or pullets?

They look like pullets, especially with the fact they'll be 3 Months old soon.

But you may have a couple sneaky late bloomer cockerels in the group, which is something that happens with Orpingtons from time to time.

Oh I know all about the sneaky. That is how I ended up with Galoot. First sign was looking rather gawky and they look nothing like he did at that age. Will try to get a new set of pics when they slow down enough.
