Thank you HBuehler. I was curious about my 3 leghorns, 5 weeks old....two have spotted wings and short combs, one is all white with a bigger comb, but it is not red at all. I was worried she was a cockeral but you have eased my fears. Thank you!

My leghorns (ideal 236's) turned 8 weeks old today. I haven't had leghorns before so I need some help sexing them.
What do you think? Pullets or cockerels?
I'm worried about #5 and a little worried about #2 because their combs are a little darker. They are still orange, though. Shouldn't they be red by now if they are cockerels?
Thanks for any help you can give me.
They look to be all pullets to me .
I have a Leghorn mix that I hatched and its 9weeks old and its comb is red and thinking its a male
