I have a beautiful, placid Buff Orp needing a home. We thought he was a she

So hard to tell with Orps, but no doubt now! He is around 38 weeks old and a lovely nature, beautiful bird, well kept by myself (a garden keeper). He is in the south west Northumberland area

This was taken a couple of weeks ago with a second cockerel who was more dominant. Since his departure, the remaining one (on the left) has become the dominant male so has bigger comb, droopier tail feathers, crowing etc. They both changed so rapidly from looking hen-like - hence me not knowing until 37/38 weeks what they were!
