I have these 4 chicken littles and i'm pretty sure 3 of the 4 are pullets. but i'm not sure about the brown one, i'm praying she's a she because i just had to get rid of a bantam roo that was over testosteroned and had a rob roy complex.
i'm new to this chicken ranching but i do love them very very much, they are very spoiled.
any help with breed and gender verification is greatly appreciated.

The red one with the big comb is a Rhode Island red cockerel. Definitely a male.

The others are females. One gold laced Wyandotte, one light Brahma (she has feathered feet), and the blue one could be a number of breeds, so not sure on that one.
I think she's a sapphire gem? i'm not positive though, she has the dark colored legs too.
 
well, my little flock of six is getting smaller lol, i'm not on board with having a rooster so cheese will have to be rehomed. he's always the first one to come running and hangs around my feet when i'm trying to get anything done in there. i'm sad about that one.

I thought they were as you say, the blue one I was told is a sapphire gem but, i dont know enough about chickens to say for sure on any of it. I am sad that the red/brown one is a rooster. it's my second favorite, that little white one is very entertaining she's a little clumsical LOL
 
the gal I bought this little flock of 3 month olds from is going to give me a hen to replace this rooster, i have a man coming to get him to add to his flock. thanks for the help everyone.

You are welcome. Glad you had a happy ending with getting a replacement and a new home for the cockerel. Yes, sapphire gem is probably what the blue chicken is if that is what you were told. Good laying variety.

The little grey one looks exactly like my Sapphire Gems did. I bet she is a Gem!
