Seem to think my shy 9 week old golden laced wyandotte "Big Girl" is a big boy??? My husband says only time will tell. Thoughts please?

Could be wrong though. Observing behaviour is often most reliable. Who is crowing?
Thank u so much for your help
 
Any thoughts on these 3 - boy or girl? They are 10 weeks old and were sold to me as fertile lavender Araucana eggs (in Australia - we don't seem to use the same definition of "araucana" as US). The eggs were duck egg blue/green. They follow around the 2 cockerels that hatched along with them, behave more submissively and don't join in the crowing.

I'd like to see side photos because I think I see male saddle feathers on Ostrich. The other two look female to me.
 
here are a couple of newer pictures of the two mystery chickens, one that is darker and one that is very light (the third to last picture is the lighter chicken with an ancona of the same age):

I suspect that more spangles show after the juvenile molt and I'd put $ on these being Swedish Flower. There are images online of others with the same basic appearance. As with EEs, there is a good amount of variability in appearance but also some common looks that show up when you take a large sampling.
