Barred Plymouth Rock roo or pullet

[alyaofnight]

Hi there,

I have 4 barred plymouth rocks. I have attached pictures of each below for you to check out. I'm thinking one is a roo.. but I'm also a first time chicken owner.... What do you think? I'm pretty sure they're all pullets except the last one I'm iffy on.

They're 3 weeks old now ♡♡♡

Based off the barring, #3 and #4 have more white which sometimes indicates cockerel. It’s really too early to tell now.

Whens the best time to tell? When their combs develop more?

Agreeing with @DancingDucks . Pics in better lighting would help as well. As they get the feathers the color is helpful. Some get their comb early and you can tell, and at a certain point male specific feathering will show. Update again at 6, 8, 12, and 16 weeks.

Do the last two pics have bigger combs and feet? If so they’re probably cockerels
