Hello, these are my 3 week old chicks. Obviously not a pretty stage for chicks. I was wondering if any of you would be willing to give your best guess as to the breed and \ or sex of my birds. Pictures are not perfect but they did pose pretty well.

Thanks for all your help!
 
Pics are not showing up.

I don't even try to guess gender before 4 weeks old, preferably 6. In most breeds the secondary sex characteristics start to show up in that time period and makes it easier to make an educated guess.
 
Ok trying pictures again. I am fighting browser settings.

I just wonder if anyone wanted to guess, I will post them again in a few weeks.

Just for guessing, I'm going to say that #1 and #3 are cockerels, #2 is a pullet.

Chicks #1 and #2 look like Red Sex-Link pullets to me (males don't get as much red in the plumage). Chick #3 could be a White Leghorn or White Rock. It could also be a male Red Sex-Link.
