5 baby chicks, how many Roos?

[texasflock1122]

We are raising chicks for the first time. We bought 3 full sized chicks and 2 bantams. All different breeds. We cannot have roosters, so I need help identifying Roos (of my 3 full sized chicks). I don’t think we will know about the bantams for awhile yet - one is a silkie. The chicks are 8 wks old currently.
One chick is FOR SURE a rooster. Stands tall and proud, red comb already, and has started crowing!
The other two have pinkish combs and wattles (1 has a more pale comb than the other, but still pinkish). These two also act like little boys, puffing up and chasing each other aggressively.
I am really hoping we didn’t get all Roos! Haha

All these chicks look like roos to me. The black and white mottled one is questionable though. And the brown one doesn't have obvious wattles, but the stance screams cockerel to me.

Man. That’s would be a bummer if they are all cockerels.

The brown one (americauna) is the one crowing.

The Americauan and Barred Rock are roos for sure. Not as sure on the mottled one but if I had twenty dollars to put down I'd still put down on a boy.

Don't feel to bad. I bought 4 Rhode island reds from a straight run bin at tractor supply 9 weeks ago, and ALL of them are boys.. So three will be going to freezer camp.

I have four chicks and they are 2 months old I don’t know if my chicks are rooster or hen yet ether but what I do know is that as they get older the females tail is shorter than the males tail

look at the feathers.
(barbed tip-male)
(spoon shaped tip-female)
I'm pretty sure all but 1 are roos.

All the feathers or just the ones around the top of the tail?
