Hiya, and welcome to BYC!!

It's hard to know in the pictures but the buff/reddish one is the only one I would say at this point was a male. It appears there are no "streamers" on the necks of the others but hard to tell via the comb in the pictures. It doesn't help that they have such poofy heads, but the "walnut-like" dark comb is still usually a tell-tale sign of a roo. Beautiful birds you have!

The one in question I actually created a separate thread about (the splash silkie) linked above in my original post. TYSM!!!!

The buff you mentioned is my Red Satin rooroo, Mooney. He is is a strictly business kind of guy and offers excellent mugshots AHEM, I mean headshots.
