Hi. I have these three Arauancas and I was wondering what gender you guys thought they looked like?
Also, what color are they classified as and what will they look like as adults based on color?
I've never had this breed before, so I'm not sure what the adults look like...

Here's the first one:

And here's the next two:

They're Easter Eggers (commonly sold as Ameraucanas/Araucanas). 1 and 2 are pullets. The third, that very orange/red one is likely a cockerel based on its color.

They don't have a set color variety, as EEs are basically mixed breeds bred for colored eggs. I have a bunch of them, they're lovely birds!

3 is an Easter Egger cockerel - ETA - leaning cockerel, but the comb, on closer look, would give me pause. The pattern is fairly male, though.

They're all Easter Eggers. The first two are definitely pullets, and I'm leaning towards pullet on the third one, too.
 
What age do cockerels start crowing? Are these guys getting old enough that the one would start a little squeaky crow soon?
