3 black and white little mystery chicks, 4 weeks old and change.
I think I have 1 cockeral for sure, a potential pullet, and then big fluffy fan tail, who could be either but I am thinking cockerel.

And no, I can't get better pictures without risking life and limb, specifically my eyeballs.
 
I think the long tailed one is a pullet. I could be wrong, though. I think I’m seeing 2 pullets and a cockerel.
I call that one Darky the Fat Fan, the (probable) pullet Pearl, and the other one Bubba.
Darky Fat Fan developed a comb well before the other two. . . But has since stalled.
Look at that TAIL though! What a tail!
 
It is very early on and I can't see the combs/wattles too clearly in those pictures. My guess is that the two less feathered birds are males and the one with more complete feathering is a female, but guesses aren't very accurate at that age unless the birds have big combs and/or wattles, in which case they are cockerels.
