I know these chicks are very young (only two weeks), but I was wondering if anyone had any idea of gender. You guys are pretty good so I thought it was worth posting.

I just got a few chicks and I'd love some help trying to figure out what they are crosses of.
All three have five toes. But not as distinct in all three. Two have slate/grey shanks. One has a bit of foot feathering.
