With Orpingtons its hard to tell......maybe in a few more weeks??

It is hard to tell with orps. They are slow maturing compared to some breeds. I have 2 white orp hens I coulda swore were roos for the longest time.

Are you sure those are chocolates??????? Their feathers look pretty black in the pictures and the down on their heads is an odd color.

i hope so thats what they bought as, the photos may not show true colours they are a lot more brown than the photo shows

so do people think the combs and waffels are large at this age or is that normal for orps

to me they look like cockerals

 

[pips&peeps]

I'd say they are both cockerels.
