Wyandotte and Bielefelder Genders

[sakerobot]

We have two silver laced Wyandottes, one has a whiter head and the other is darker. The third Wyandotte is a blue laced red with the splash phase. They are 13 weeks old, hatch date was 3/27.

We actually want a rooster, and if none of these are one then we want to find one. Any thoughts from the images I managed to capture today?

Nobody is an obvious cockerel

I'm only seeing pullets.

At 13 weeks, all Pullets

Thanks, and my other question is - at this age, is it definitely safe to conclude that none is a rooster or could there still be a surprise?

No surprises at this age, they're all girls.

Definitely all pullets! By this age you'd start to see solid feathers coming in around the shoulders for a roo (silver for the black-laced silvers, red/gold for black/blue/splash laced reds/golds) and probably the beginning of some saddl feathers.

Your splash has really pretty coloring, she might actually be a splash-laced gold, though it's possible the photos are washing out her true coloring.

Thank you for your input, everyone! We'll be picking up a young rooster for them later this week.
