Do they appear to all be pullets

I cant get a good shot of lemon. Shes an aggressive girl but mostly to my Yorkie.
 
Here is a side shot of the one in question. Not sure if it helps at all.

This is a much better picture for sexing. Now that I can see the lack of cockerel saddle feathers and the rounded tail feathers, I agree that she is a pullet about ready to lay.
 
How long do you think till she lays? What other signs should I look for? I keep looking and hoping for the first egg and never find one.

They look like girls to me

Besides an enlarged, reddened comb - before laying pullets may squat when you touch their backs - as they would for a rooster. They also may check out best boxes. Sometimes placing a golf ball or two gives them the idea what goes in a nest box. BTW you have some beautiful girls.

My BO's are 19.5 weeks. Still no eggs. I thought I had a roo as well at 4 mos, turned out 1 hen maturing faster than the others and bossy. I'll add a pic. They start squatting, and can get vocal, should be investigating the nest box. The comb and waddles get bright red when ready to lay. Mine are squatting , one hollered this am. I thought I had my first egg. Nope, she was practicing. This was my suspicious girl at 4 mos. Patience...grrr.
