I have 2 Blue Australorps. Hatched September 2, 2023. One has a longer tail than the other. They did say they were supposed to be pullets when I got them. Does anyone know if they are both pullets/females?
I'm actually hoping that these are both roosters. I have a flock of black australorps and I would love if these were both roosters.
I think they are, but I'm questioning the one on the right.
What are your opinions?

Hi all! I just picked up these two cuties. One is a blue australorp and one a blue star. I’m unable to tell the difference. I got them from Ideal Poultry. Online their site says their blue stars are from blue andalusians and barred rocks. Can anyone help me please? Thanks so much!
Hello,
I purchased this Blue Australorp from a local farm 2 days ago. She was listed as 12 weeks old, but to me she looks very small for 12 weeks. These pictures were taken when I got her. Does she look 12 weeks old? Thank you 😊
