Baby Chick Pictures!!!!! POST!

I'm pretty sure it's ALL Speckled Sussex. Our rooster is a p
speckled Sussex and we have just one Speckled Sussex hen. So this pullet/rooster? appears to have gotten hatched from our one and only SS hen. He looks exactly like his father down to the white on bottom of wings. But, if he is a rooster, we can't keep him. Haven't heard him crow, but could he be intimidated by his dad?
The tail looks more like a hen to me but I could be wrong.
 
Want to share my babies. They are golden and black sexlinks. Not really what I was hoping for, but they are cute. Can anyone tell me about how friendly they can be?
My black sex link hen is my most friendly and the reason I bought 4 more BSL chicks. They are now 6 weeks old (7 weeks old? Going to have to check the calendar) and are quite friendly even though they aren't handled nearly as much as I had hoped they would be.

Oh, I hope you're right!! I do so want to keep this one. We just love our rooster, King Arthur--and our only Speckled Sussex hen is Guenivere. We had a rooster from him earlier this year and kept him as he is gorgeous (probably a RIR was his mom)--so, we just can't have another rooster.

Anyone else have thoughts on sex?
 
This one looks like a Rhode Island Red. Not sure if it is a rooster. We have two RIR pullets 15 weeks old, neither have as big of a comb and wattles as your's in the picture.
This one is supposed to be a Red Sex Link. We got her (?) at the same time as 6 others--but, she is half again bigger than the rest of them and the only one with developing wattles--which is what makes me wonder if it's a rooster instead of a hen?
