Any ideas on genders? They are 5 weeks old. I know it's a bit too early but I need to know which chicks I can get attached to...

Darwin is my chamois frizzle. S/he has a flat but round crest. The under-beak is still pink. I've always wanted a chamois polish so I really hope for a girl.

Basil is a frizzle white. S/he also has a flat, round crest. The under-beak is still pink.

Clover is a white smooth. S/he has a tall, rectangular crest. The under-beak is slightly red. I think this is a rooster.

Thanks in advance. Any guesses are welcome, but make sure you say if you are guessing or knowing so I don't get freaked out...
You can put your answers into the poll.
 
Definitely update us a few weeks later! None of them are screaming cockerel, but we'll see.:)

Clover did a little "crow" (more like a high-pitched scream) today. Wattles are very red.
Has little lumps on legs- look like tiny spurs

Darwin and basil gladly aren't showing any male signs yet so I think they're pullets!
 
I think I heard a scream too from one of my 2 the other day.
Will you keep the cockerel?
No. I'll probably wait until he starts crowing properly to rehome him
I already have 2 roosters and I can't have anymore. Hoping I can find him a good home when he's older.
