Easter Egger club!

Ok so my babies are almost 7 wks old now, and fully feathered out. 2 of them are going through color changes that have me worried. Not to mention their combs are changing color. So I'm asking for opinions (again). Boy or girl??? (please please please be a girls...)

This is Rizo the one I've been questioning all along on male of female I managed to catch a decent pose :)
You see that patch on the wing? That has only shown up in the last week or so. And while this pic doesn't show it well, in certain lights it looks like it is reddening.





the comb is darkening too, while the one I am sure is a female is still a pale "skin tone" pink



This is Dot. I am only newly concerned about being male. Hard to tell in this pic, but Dot is developing a similar patch on the wings a Rizo, and notice the dark feathers at the bottom of the wing...in certain lights it has an almost green shimmer to it.


Dots' comb


A better shot at Dots' tail, that seems to be getting longer...

I don't see sickle feathers and the combs looks right for the age. I'd say all are pullets.

I don't see any signs of them being cockerels but keep an eye on them as they get bigger.
