When do chicks get wattles?

I dont have waffles showing on mine, ones a red and one is bar. They are flying. So I dont know if there still to young.

Hi and
welcome-byc.gif


Do you know how old your chicks are? They can "fly" at a pretty young age -
 
I think the third image looks like a rooster. The comb is quite large. I have two 9 week old hens and theirs are not this big, but mine look older than yours. Id say it looks 6-8 weeks old. The grey/ black might be older.
 
at 6-8 weeks old they dont have wattles yet. mineare just starting to get them at 9 weeks. I dont think they crow until at least 10 and its not proper crowing until older
