Can you verify the breed and tell the gender if it isn't too soon?

I purchased 3 lil chicks a couple of weeks ago. They are now 4 weeks old. They are supposed to be Ameracuanas, but I'm not sure what they look like as chicks. So can anyone tell me if they are in fact Ameracuanas and can you tell if they are pullets? I really really hope they are pullets!! The first two pics are of the same chick because she wouldn't cooperate with me lol. Thank you for your help!

 
They are Easter Eggers, which hatcheries sell as Ameraucanas. True Ameraucanas have to be purchased from a reputed breeder.

Right now they appear to be pullets... but 4 weeks is a bit early. If there are any cockerels, you'll start to see red coming in their combs around 6-8 weeks.
