    What Gender Are My Buff Orpingtons?

    The reason I'm asking for help on gender is because my buffs are much more different from my lavendars. My lavendars, you can clearly tell who is a pullet and who is a cockerel. The pullets have very small, pale combs, and my cockerel has a large bright red comb like my buffs do and also much...
