Wyandotte, gender pullet or cockerel, how many weeks?

[Kriskras]

Bought these chickens this week as Wyandotte...Are they? The seller told me they are from june/july. What do you think in weeks? And the most important. Are they pullet or cockerel..

Heads

They have yellow skin and rose combs, which are right for Wyandottes, but I have never seen them in that color pattern.

I am not sure where you are from, but maybe that color pattern exists in your country. Otherwise I'd say they are mixes of some type. Maybe Sussex x Wyandotte.

From the Netherlands... And pullets?

 

[Kriskras]

Wyandote porcellain I think??

 

[JedJackson]

Yes, pullets. Not porcelain. Similar to Millie Fleur or spangled old English or speckled Sussex, but the one hen only has white spangles, not the black tips. So I am really not sure.

 

[sourland]

Yes, pullets.

Feathersite has photos of what they are calling 'brown porcelain' from Germany. They look similar to yours.

Thank you...
Pullets yes? Ok makes me happy.
Can anyone see how many weeks they probably are? I think 12. (Look so small by the 20 weaks ones althought they are boys)
Yes brown porcelain I think it must be then.

The last 2 i bought were cockerels. Don't know if I can keep them. Till now they are doing good. No loud noises too early and no hormones yet... They are 20 weaks.

I'd say 10-12 weeks is about right.
