At that age you're probably okay in assuming they're pullets. I've had some boys not pop combs until much later, but that's unusual. Usually by ten weeks of age if they're males they'll have red developed combs. Then again, here's Lime at about four months old:

Eight days later 7 week EE's? and 9 weeks for the Rhode Island white who seems to be mean. She bit my lip a few weeks back . She's kind of scarey when she gives the I'm going to KiLL you stare. The first fight happened on top of my head :/ She hasn't hurt the little ones so maybe she's trying to protect them from me? She sings the prettiest song when she's content which is not often enough. She stomps and charges when the other two are perching on my arms. She is not allowed on my head or my shoulder anymore haha no way!
