Easter Egger Sexing "tips and tricks" *Pictures Included*

Okay I have 3 EE's and hoping all are girls. They are all around 8-9 weeks old. Here are some pictures tell me what yall think. Thanks in advance! :)

#1 Gray one


#2 Brown one


#3 Bigger Gray One
 
Are you sure about their age? They look a little younger than that. 1 is probably a pullet but it's a little hard to tell from the pictures. 2 is a pullet, 3 I believe is a cockerel.
 
We got them on June 3 and she said they were 1-2 weeks old (most closer to 2 weeks). So 7 weeks not 8 weeks. I guess I counted wrong the first time. I was thinking that #3 was a roo since his pattern was more mixed up and the other 2 are more uniform. You read so many different things it is hard to tell.

One looks like a cockerel. The comb is 3 row and a bit pink, and there are white patches on the shoulders.
Two looks like a pullet.
Three is a cockerel for sure.
 
Pullet or roo? Easter Bunny (named by my then 2 yr old) is approx 12-13 weeks old.

So I have read a lot of this thread, but obviously not all 900+ pages lol. This one EE is confusing me. The other roos that were out of this clutch were sold almost a month ago because it was VERY obvious they were all boys(huge combs, red on the shoulders). This one doesn't have any color markings at all(the marks on his back are mud) but the comb leads me to believe it's a roo. I held onto him when I sold the rest because I wasn't sure. Thoughts? Excuse the mud, we had a massive amount of rain and flooded their pen(

At 15 weeks, that looks like a pullet. I can't see any male saddle feathers; the comb, while red, is pretty flat; and there is no noticeable size difference between this one and the pullets next to it.
