I'm new to having chickens
I grew up in the city and my husband grew up in the country. He has chickens as a kid but doesn't remember how to tell the sex of the chickens accurately. Please help and tell me why and how to tell for next time.

Could you post a side profile of each bird?

I'm actually leaning towards cockerel on both. The one on the left has a large red comb and patchy red coloring on the wings. I can't see saddle feathers in the photo, but I may see them if you post a side profile.

The bird on the right I'm thinking cockerel on because of the patchy red coloration. I also think I see saddle feathers near the tail. But, I'm not sure because the comb isn't very large or red.

Also, how old are they?
