6 weeks old now.
Silver laced barnevelder. This is my only Barnie, so I'm hoping she's a girl, but I can see tiny little wattles forming

I’m hoping female too for you! Also that boy in the third picture is a male and has a hilarious face (in my opinion... he just caught me off guard).

10 weeks old now and they're just starting to get affectionate.

This is my black Australorp. Always thought boy. Do you agree? I love him because he's sooo fluffy

Yes, agree with all your assessments!
both Marans (always with an s, it is not plural, it is the name of the town in France where they come from) are pullets, barnevelder is a pullet, splash orp is a pullet, GLW is a pullet, CLB is a pullet, ancona is a pullet.
The blue autralorp is looking like a boy, but I am not 100% sure yet. You should know for sure with this one in another few week.
All your birds are just stunning and all look so healthy and well cared for.

Thank you i love them so much. Here's hoping I'm wrong about the austalrop

Blue and Black Australorps are cockerels. I suspect the runt might be as well. All others pullets!
