18 weeks old - hen or roo?

[Tessaandherchickens]

I bought 5 chicks that were promised 90% chance of female 18 weeks ago and I have 3 I’m still uncertain about.

None of the chicks have squatted, laid, or crowed. None of them have particularly “roostery” personalities, but they aren’t overly friendly or submissive either. I’ll post photos below.

Thanks in advance!

Their breeds are: lavender ameraucana, buff Orpington, and Easter egger

Easter Eggers aren’t cuddly and friendly. Mine would prefer to be left alone. I’m seeing pullets in your photos. I wrote an article about sexing EEs HERE

Oh I so hope they are all pullets!! Thanks for your article, I will definitely check it out. EEs are so tricky for me with sexing. I got a cockerel last year, but he made it easy by crowing very young

My limited experience says hens too. I had 2 cockerels from eggs and they were both crowing and had big combs by 10 weeks.

All are Pullets.
