I ordered 5 pullets and 1 cockerel. I received what I thought 8 pullets and my Specked Sussex cockerel. Posting 2 suspects along with my originally ordered cockerel Speckled Sussex. They are 5 1/2 weeks old and are “Chocolate Eggers” from Cackle. Hopefully you can tell me they are just fast developing ladies and not the truth of potential boys lol. Any help is appreciated!

I'm reading that as the first one is your known cockerel?
Other two look suspicious but I'd give them a couple more weeks.
So you ordered 5 females and 1 male and recieved 3 extras? If that's the case I wouldn't jump to any conclusions that those 3 are supposed to be pullets.
 
First one, the SS, was supposed to be my only cockerel. Yes the other 2 are the suspects! Those are the 2 out of the bunch that have a deeper color/larger comb than all the others. I put the SS in there to compare the other 2 to him since their comb resembles his. Everyone else has a very light pink small comb like previous pullets so I am not worried on the rest. They even dwarf my SS boy but then again he is a little smaller than all the “Chocolate Eggers”.
