Both of the black birds are cockerels. I can't see the white bird enough to make judgement on gender but the lack of dark shoulders on the blue one makes it very likely a pullet. Your birds have a bit different maturity rate than US Australorps which is throwing us off because that's what most repliers are most familiar with. Your white bird is not an Australorp due to yellow legs/skin. I am not familiar with Italian breeds enough to state an opinion on what a likely mix or breed would be but if this were a purebred in the US I would guess White Jersey Giant. I do not know of how common they are overseas.
Wow. That's something i haven't thought about. So i'm in the same boat. My birds are European, too, not US. Oh myBoth of the black birds are cockerels.

Thank you very much! We discussed about the white one not being a pure Australorp in another thread that I opened precisely because I noticed the yellow legs, but pure breed wasn't important to me, while having 3 cockerels is not good news, but I'm pretty sure now!Both of the black birds are cockerels.

I'd say you're right on 1 pullet and 3 cockerels.
