hello @Cjoakes790 - welcome to BYC

It's a bit early to tell, but none of them are looking like cockerels to me, as yet.

X2 on it being a bit early. We can normally tell best between 8-12 weeks. Don't worry yet. If one of them is a rooster, we'll be able to tell long before it starts crowing. Normally they are 4-5 months before they start crowing.

Ok I hope so. I’m going to be so upset if they are!

Where did you get them? Are they supposed to be sexed, or are they straight run? And by the way, looks like you're new, so welcome to the group!

I am new to the group. Thank you! I feel very welcome! I have read multiple posts on here the last 6 months and they have helped a lot.

The chicks are supposed to be sexed but you know that doesn’t always happen.
