1st Time Chicken Family - 8 wk girls or boys?

[pasuit]

Welcome to BYC. Glad to have you. Most are pullets. The two Silkies are very iffy. It's very hard to tell until they get older and grow streamers at the nap of the neck. I've hatched quite a few and still have to wait to know for sure. They are all great looking chicks.

Thank you to all for responding to helping us figure out who is what breed. Fingers crossed we won't have any crowing (not allowed roosters in our city). We are looking forward to continuing to watch them all grow and our future fresh eggs!

So we are just loving our cute little flock and having such a great time with our chicks. We ordered 10 pullets from a hachery and received 11. My guess is our bonus chicken is a rooster but so far I'm not sure who is a hen vs. a rooster. Also I ordered one barred rock and one cuckoo maran but I don't know who is who. (Specifically Violet, Daisy, and Luna I'm questioning breeds). I welcome any help you more seasoned chicken folks can offer.

Dixie & Violet: Barred Rock (looks like pullets)
Gigi: Buff Orpington (cockerel)
Lucy: Production Red (pullet)
Dinner: Easter Egger (possibly a cockerel)
Flash: Easter Egger (pullet)
Beatrix: Silver laced Wyandotte (pullet)
Luna: Cuckoo Marans (pullet)
Fuzzy Pants & Fluffy Butt: Buff Silkie (unsure. Pullets maybe)
Hedwig: Light Brahma (pullet)

(it is harder to sex Silkies, but I tried my best!)

All look like pullets to me except Gigi. He looks like a buff orpington.....

Gigi looks like a cockerel to me. The silkies are much too young for me to embarass myself with a wild guess. Love their color though
