I'd vote boy

It really doesn't matter, if it's a boy it's a boy, if it's a girl it's a girl. We need to be patient and wait it out. Please still keep me updated.

I like mysteries!

Those are all pullets. Easter eggers are almost always sex linked, yours have the female pattern.

Okay, I hear people say this all the time but I've never seen this happen in all of the Easter Eggers I've raised and hatched???

The males will be a white based pattern and the females will l9ok similar to the OP's chicks when young. Its not 100%, but it usually holds. Its mentioned often here, i didn't know about it until seeing it here.

Updating... Making sure we still have no roosters in the bunch. These are about 3 months old at this point..Wife seems to think that Dolly, the RIR is a roo and possibly one of the Buffs...

Let us know and thanks! Also, we have 7 more in the incubator due this Saturday which is going to be our first. Very excited!

This probably sounds like a dumb question, but what is a pullet? Is it gender related?
