Baby Americana

Is it ok to breed Road Island red with Americana?
I have 11 week old chicks and having a hard time telling my boys from my girls, do you have any tips.

The breeding is fine. The boys should be starting to get their sex feathers in so pick them up and pull back their neck and saddle feathers. The males should have short pointed feathers coming in.
