What gender is this buff Orpington chicken? ("Shirley")

[Carolyn252]

I have two juvenile buff Orpington chickens; both are fifteen and a half weeks old today.

I'm so hoping that both of them are female. I've been calling them Laverne and Shirley.

Here are some photos of Shirley. (I'll show photos of Laverne in my next post.)





This is a view from above, near her tail:

Looks like a pullet to me. I have one named Lucy that is about 20 weeks.

I think she's a pullet, I have a few hens, and they look like that.

She's a pullet Orp but I think she is a Lemon Cuckoo Orp. I am far from an expert but I have a Lemon Cuckoo Orp and a Buff Orp and she looks like my LuLu. She has alot of white in her and so does my LCO, my BO is mostly one shade of buff with no white.

I have 4 BO's, used to have 5 but a STUPID fox took one. They are 3 1/2 months old, and two of them look like that with a bit if white on them, but I notice as they are getting older, they are getting darker.
