I have 5 Whiting True Blue chicks, 2 are 15 weeks old and 3 of them are 13 weeks old. I know nothing about this breed and I’m having the hardest time figuring out if I have cockerels or pullets because each one is so different! I already have an Ayam Cymani Rooster so if I have more cockerels I need to rehome them.
Some have dark legs, some cream; some have pea combs and some don’t. It very confusing so any help would be great!!!

Ahhh yes.. . Whiting True Blues if I understand are all going to look a bit different. The only thing consistent between them all is that the pullets all lay blue eggs. But by this age you should be seeing pink combs on males and pale yellow on females.
Did you get straight run?

I did get straight run...
At this age, if there is any red/pink in their comb they are most likely cockerels then?
They are all so pretty and different, and too small to make meat birds, so I’m hoping my pullets outnumber the cockerels:)
 
Well, they are the age that males will have pointy ones. I saw one or two that did already, I just can't see the other ones. But if you don't want to post pics, that's fine.

I will tomorrow, we’ve had storms for days so I have not had a chance to get better pics. Hopefully tomorrow morning we will have sunshine and I can grab some good pics for sure:)
