Chest butting..determines sex?

I've got 8 six-week-old pullets (I hope) and I see a fair amount of "chest bumping" and other "I'm head chicken" behavior between them. If one hops up on top of something and flaps her wings, (or flies down from a higher perch and flaps her wings) there is at least one other bird who will run over and chest bump with her. It's pretty funny to watch.
 
All my pullets chest bump! They do the wing flapping and jumping on the backs too. I don't have any boys either.
