We've had these chicks for almost 4 weeks, but I don't know their hatch dates so they are probably older than that. I'm pretty sure some are older than others. Let me know if I should post more pics.

Thanks in advance!

Chick #1 - probably the oldest, most feathered out, gender and breed?


Chick #1 - back



Chick #2 - breed and gender?


Chick #2 - back



Chick #3 - pretty sure she's an EE pullet


Chick #3 - back



Chick #4 - BR for sure, pullet?


Chick #4 - back, sorry it's blurry



I can't believe how fast they grow. From this:

I see only one boy and that's pic #1...however, I have no clue what breed they are :) Cute, though...and yes, it's amazing how fast they grow!!
 
Thanks for your responses!

I was hoping #1 wouldn't be a roo. He is so sweet, and I love the way he gives me stink eye. Maybe he'll be a really quiet roo so we can keep him. Wishful thinking? Probably.
 
#1 is most definiately a rooster. I don't think he is Rhode Island Red tough. There are patterned feathers on his back. I have some hens that look quite a bit like him, they are from a 1/2 New Hampshire 1/2 Rhode Island Red rooster over Welsummmer hens.
