3.5 month old Easter Eggers. I bought 11 of them, and suspect 4 are cockerels. Please let me know what you think. I'll post again tomorrow with the last suspect.

Whitey:

























Copper: He use to have a long high sickle feather, but someone pecked it off!















Mottle:











Leonard: We know he is a cockerell, he crows.......A LOT!

These guys are easy...do you have pictures of the ones you think are girls?
Thanks for the fast response!!! LOLOLOLOLOL....REALLY, they are all cockerels, even the white one with the fawn colored mottling? The comb is so pale, but then there are those tail feathers......

I swear, I sit and I stare at them for long periods of time trying to figure it out when I should be working. 4 EE's and a SLW who act like teenage boys, always fighting.
 
cockerels
the 2nd last one is questionable though
P.S just a guess
I hope you are right, the only rooish thing about that mottled one is her tail feathers. She/he is not aggressive like the suspected roos, and her comb is small and not red like the others. Thanks for looking!
 
Thank you so much for your reply's everyone. Sorry it took so long to get these posted, I was outside working all day. Here is some more pictures of the Mottle chicken. I still have more candidates but I might have to wait till tomorrow to post. Here are some better pictures I hope. I took lots of pictures so please tell me if you need more:

Definitely a boy...look at all the red in the wings.
Are you sure that's the same one I asked about?
Just went back...that's not the one I was questioning, that one is definitely a cockerel
HUH.....I wonder if I did??? I have one another one like him......I might have mixed them up yesterday, I just got back from the henhouse where I committed the crime of disturbing chickens on the roost...LOL. Oh the squawking that I caused!!!

Please ignore my poop board................

So, the pictures are not great, and I swear this one doesn't even look like the first one I posted. I am sure I only have two with these markings, but I'm going to go through pictures and check, and of course check tomorrow as well.

Here is the other one:
