1. The gray laced looks like a pullet so far (small pale comb, no wattles). The brownish black has a larger comb that looks faintly pink in the pictures. Could go either way at this age. (but I lean toward pullet since no wattles and horizontal stance- a very unreliable predictor from photos!)
2. At 4 weeks, you might see an early developing male, usually larger pink/reddish comb and sometimes male specific feather coloring. I don't see anything like that in your younger chicks, so cannot say one way or another for those. You will need to wait and watch. and maybe post new pics next week!
So going off of who has more feathers or less feathers is not reliable for sexing is that correct? Thank you for the info.
 
I have 2, 12-13 wk old black australops. Do I have 1 roo, 1 hen or both hens? One has a long square tail and one has no tail, just curved long feathers. They are getting their big girl feathers. My pictures are of the one with no tail. I think this is a roo?

So this is complicated....
I'm sure the gal on the left is a pullet but unsure of the one on the right. I bought 5 Ameraucanas that are siblings, hatched at the same time. 3 were obvious Roos that have now found homes, and one was an obvious pullet. But this mystery one has me stumped. The higher pigment in comb has me leaning cockerel, although looks more like the pullet as opposed to his now gone cockerel brothers. Both the pullet and the mystery bird have the same temperament where as the cockerel siblings were more aloof and flighty. Maybe he/she is confused? Lol

I also should add, they both exhibit eaquel dominance outside when they spat for fun. :/ weird.
