can anyone help me with the gender of these little guys?

[LittleGecko]

These are my four little guys, from left to right they are
A sultan, a lemon millefleur sablepoot, an araucana (I think but not sure, maybe you can help on that question as well! ) and an altesier (not sure about the spelling).
I did have three more a maran, polish frizzle and an andalusian but I had an outbreak of cossidosis and lost them before getting it under control with lots of invaluable help from the learning centre.
What do you all think about what gender these guys may be? I will be offering any cockerels for sale here as I have two adult roos already!

How old are they? From their appearance I'm guessing about 7-8 weeks?

The sablepoot I'm not sure either way as that comb looks pinkish, if it gets any redder soon then I would suspect a rooster. The araucana is a rooster, as that one has such a red comb already. The sultan appears to be a pullet, the altesier pullet for now, but watch that comb - if it gets redder soon then I would suspect rooster.

Yes they are about 7 to 8 weeks old, the araucana has had a red comb for two weeks now and I have my fingers crossed about the sablepoot, it would be great if he/she is a pullet he/she is such a character already! do sultans have much of a visible comb? I can't see any trace of one and no pinkness at all but I have no experience of the breed and don't know what to look for.

I agree with the above. The Altsteirer looks female colored, at that.

I'm not sure about sultans, I'm in Australia and the breed never made it to our shores before the import ban on live birds was established some years ago. I know that a few die-hard chicken fanciers have re-created the breed here, but they are extremely rare. If the comb is really small at that age then that's a good sign, but nothing is certain yet. Some breeds are exceedingly good at fooling you until crow or egg!

Yes! I have two adult roos as my brahma pretended to be a hen for so long that I had bought a pekin roo to look after the "girls". Luckily the roos are fine together.

My lovely little araucana has started to crow! I will have to start looking for a new home for him, hopefully someone would like a pure bred araucana cockerel who is very tame, perhaps to breed easter eggers.
The sultan is almost certainly female as is the altsteirer, but the sablepoot is still keeping us guessing.
