This is a boy
They look Girlish to me, but I've never seen an EE like #3. The tail may be curving down. However, if it were a roo, I think you'd be seeing (or hearing) more male traits by 12+ weeks. I'll lean toward pullet for that one too.
Number 1 is a boy and number 2 looks like a girl.
How old? I want to say cockerel because of the red leakage on the wings. Take a look at the hackle feathers (back of the neck) are they pointy or rounded? If they are pointy it's a cockerel.First time poster. Thoughts on this one?
