The ones with darker spotting on the heads should be roosters. So out of the three shown are two roos and 1 pullet.

Anyone know if coloring is a factor? I have 4 buffs-4weeks old. one has more red brown-buff feathers than the rest. They are darker I guess is a good way to describe.....First timer and clueless

Hey newbie i am also a newbie but have been reading up on the same subject. So from what I've read males will have more red in the wing area. Is this where the red is on your chick? Also if you have any pics please post

The camera sucks. I cant get it to have better lighting. The camera was very close to them but looks far away. sorry the color is off but hopefully you can see the difference in shades and size compared to the others.
