Not Sure If You've Got A Pullet Or Cockerel? Click Here! Thread 2

Ok so my chicks are about 6.5 weeks old as of this last Sunday (when the pics are taken) (as of today they are 7 weeks old. any ideas on gender? I know Sparky is a cockerel, but am unsure if Squirt or Maverik is or not, along with Sparky they were late bloomers for there tail and body feathers and as you can see Squirt is still a little behind. the other 3 I feel like at this point are pullets, but i could be wrong. I bought them all from TSC as "Ameraucanas" (finding out later that they are Easter Eggers (which is fine because that's what I wanted originally)).

1. Here is Annabelle

5. Here is Squirt (another one that I am not sure on has been growing slower then the rest)
Squirt is very sweet and enjoys perching on my hand and arm (tries on the shoulder but try not to let her/him go on my shoulder)

So here are all of them, let me know what you all think, I will be taking more pictures on this upcoming Sunday (been taking weekly pictures on Sundays) so if you want the next set of pictures let me know.

All look like pullets except for Sparky

Okay so I have 4 6 week old babies. I know two are most likely roos, but looking at the other two I am not sure, I know it is still early but I am hoping I didn't get 4 roos. 2 lavender orpington and 2 barnyard mixes. View attachment 2338442Lav 1 on right Lav 2 on left

View attachment 2338443lav 2 in front, lav 1 in back. black definitely a rooView attachment 2338444lav 1View attachment 2338445lav 2View attachment 2338446Barnyard mixView attachment 2338447barnyard mix, black is DEF a roo (his feet, waddles and comb are huge lol)

Black and lavender 2 are cockerels

.

Looks like a pullet so far

My kids and I are new to raising chickens and have four 6-week-old chicks. I'm pretty sure two are pullets, but we use some help sexing these two. The first one, Pip, is an Australorp and the second one, Sweet Pea, is maybe an Easter Egger? (Also, is it weird that the Australorp doesn't have any tailfeathers yet?) Thanks for any help!

Not sure yet, but leaning towards pullet on the Easter egger

Looks like two pullets and a cockerel

Maybe I was not expressing myself clear re the numbering since this was a second post, I edited the post. Number 1 is the white one, number 2 (brown) was with doubt and number 3 was the barred one. Thanks

Ah, yes, I was wondering...
It was the brown one I think is probably a female.

Barred (3) is female. White (1) is male.
Last bird appears to be female. Do you have my more photos? Side shots are best.
Love their patterns.

Ditto from me!

Pullet

Speckled sussex, nearly 7 weeks old. Tail feathered out at the same time as the rest of the girls. I really want it to be a pullet, as I only ordered 8 females and 1 male, of which the male was clearly dotted on the head and is a RIR. But concerned....

No male saddles, yet - that I can see, but that face screams male. I would bet that's a boy.
