3 week old BCM gender guesses

[FarrFreshEggs]

Hey all! I know it’s super early but I’m hoping to get some eyes on these babes. I see at least two Roos already but the others I’m not sure yet. I know in the coming weeks it will be more evident but I guess I’m worried because I’m hoping at least one of these is to be a girl because I’m raising chicks for a friend and she’s not ready to take on a roo but reallllyyy wanted a BCM so I rolled the diced and got four and said I’d keep the rest lol anddd here I am. I hope I get a lady too though but I know it’s part of the gamble.

Any guesses are appreciated.

With those combs they all look male to me.

Thank you for your input. The only one I’m hoping might not be a Roo is number 3 but that’s only based on coloring because I agree they all have big combs. Her comb also has a different texture to the points… so idk

That comb is also still yellow. If it turns red by 6 weeks it probably is a male as well.

My thoughts exactly

Based on stance, #3 might be a girl. The others are standing very erect and alert.

Update: only one hasn’t turned red combed lol
Thoughts? 4 weeks old now


Also side note: do bcms show their copper super early? All the red combed boys are copper all over the place and this last hopeful pullet doesn’t have any other than a beginning collar.

No input but they are so cute. I am about to get my first set of BCMs if I had to guess 1st pic looks like a girl though

My Marans mixes the boys always show their color early. They seem to mature early as well, comb color sometimes visible week 2.
