3 Barred Rocks 9 weeks old - what gender?

[Just Three]

I have three BRs nine weeks old. I've been assuming two were roos, because they grew faster and their combs developed and turned red earlier than the third. They also seem to be more energetic and will occasionally face off and make a quick peck at one another. But now that I've been looking at other pics on BYC, the feathers on mine aren't nearly as bright as the pics of BR roos here. What do you think?


This is Luna. We're pretty sure she's a pullet.

This is Holly, one of the maybe-roos?

This is Wiggie. S/he rules the roost, with occasional challenge from Holly.

Holly and Wiggie are up top in this one:

One more with Wiggie out in front:

My kids are dying to know what's what and who's who. What do you think?

To be honest... they all look like pullets to me. More black than white & dark fronts to their legs.

They all look like pullets to me they are too dark to be roos.

Here is a pic of one of my 11 week old roos.

Notice the darker girls in the background
