Six 9-week old chicks - Pullet or Roo? (Pic Heavy)

[Katydid2011]

I purchased these as sexed pullets. They've all grown at the same rate, with the Wyandottes being consistently slightly smaller than the rest. The only one that's notably more courageous than the others is the Buff Orpington. I wasn't able to get good photos of their feet, but hopefully what I do have is enough for those of you who are experienced at chicken sexing to offer an educated guess. Thanks!

They all look like pullets.

I, all look like girls (just not quite sure about Ava but looks like a girl) beautiful looking pullets

I go by the tails when they are young. I am s'picous of curling under tail feathers. The pullets tail feathers tend to be more squared off and straight up as the roos curl over and are narrowed at the end. Ruby and Leila ? It is hard to tell when they are balanced on your palm.

The only bird that needs to be watched for roo features is Lily. Red leakage on the wing in an EE is a sign of a roo 99.9% of the time.

Everyone else is a bunch of girls

Yay for pullets!

With regard to tail feathers, I don't think any of them really curl under. Here's a photo of the group walking, with the exception of Lily (EE) who's missing. It better shows their tail feathers and comparative size:

Whoops, that should read "Ava" not "Ave".

OH NO! Lily is probably my favorite. "She's" been developing a redder cast and richer coloring over time.
