Why do my Australorps look so different?

I think they're both female. This is my Australorp Edna. She has some big wattles and a large comb....and has started producing a pullet sized egg every day now (even in this heat). She's a good chicken!

I think you have one that is closer to maturity than the other but both girls.

I also have an Australorp and a Dominique that look like yours. I had a bunch (20) of rooters and they are already gone to a friend. I know the ones I have left are girls, but they just more mature than the others. Love the stink eye!

Definetly BOTH pullets!! I have 2. One has a nice big comb & wattle she just devolpded in the past week or so and the other has no comb or wattle to speak of!! There about 23 weeks old. Same thing with some BO's I have out of 5 only one has matured so far.

I have an 18 week old ee roo that I could tell weeks ago he was a dude. Pointy feathers, crowing(of course) and dancing around the rest of the pullets. If that was a roo you should be able to tell now.
