I have 4 buff Orpington chickens all 9 weeks old. I thought they were all supposed to be pullets. they were mixed and labeled wrong. I believe I have 2 Roos and 2 female. I’m definite 1 is a female but I am unsure on the other. 1 has hardly any comb and the other is grown. The other roosters look like roosters. With red combs and red wattles. Just wondering is there any chance this on is a male.

Following cause I'm really unsure. First photo I could easily suppose is a pullet, but the second picture is throwing me off because it looks larger. Any other photos by chance?

Definitely a hen!
 
At that age my buff orp cockere had a large, bright red comb and wattles, and was crowing.
These look just like my pullets did 🤷‍♀️
Yeah the others have bright red like your describing. This one has a bigger comb than the one that looks to be a definite female.
I hope your right. Thank you.
 
At 9-10 weeks, my buff orpington cockerel started changing compared to my other 3 buff orp pullets. His comb & wattles became slightly bigger and redder, & now he looks like this. My rooster still doesn't crow that much, probably because he'd the 2nd rooster in our flock, & our Ameraucana rooster is the dominant rooster in the bunch. Any updated photos?
