So I was assured that my three gals were in fact gals and that I could take back any roosters, however, is this a little pink for 5-6 weeks on a pullet? She's the largest of the three, but also the most timid/shy. Nice dark wash on the legs, but the comb is turning pink and it worries me a bit.

 
I don't see anything obviously cockerelish about this bird in the photo - but would rather see a picture showing the bird in a natural, standing position as it is better for assessing certain characteristics of gender.
 
It's possible that it's a pullet. You can get all sorts of variations in barring with hatchery quality chicks. I had a few with so much white, I was sure that they were boys, but their combs never grew.
 
Very true, I'll just have to wait and see, I suppose. Here's a video, if it helps. I was actually just proud that all three were sharing harmoniously here. The one I posted the thread about is on the right.
