Disagree. The Wyandotte has red wattles and male saddles, and the Dominique-looking bird has a very red rose comb

#6 for sure is a cockerel , #3 & #4 questionable ... What breeds are they?

Watch for the development of hackle (neck) and saddle (base of tail) feathering, which usually will be noticeable around 12wks ... They are narrow and have the flowing/streaming effect. That's also about the time crowing starts although I've had one gal that crowed and laid an egg Most go by comb/wattle size and color ... I've had a couple single comb gals really fool me with the size and color of theirs until they laid the egg.

Can’t tell if number 7 has saddles from the way it’s being held Wyandotte I would like better pictures of the face to sex.


I think the white one (5) may be a roo as well, I’m seeing saddles and a pretty red comb

Five is for sure a female.

5 has no male saddles. Both genders get saddles.
