3 week old roughly. Unsure if they are roos, pullets, or even EEs as we were told at feed store. Anyone have any guesses?

I'd give them a little more time. EE's can be notoriously hard to sex at young ages and can often fool you. I might lean roo on the same one you suspect, but I'm far from sure. My ee had me convinced it was a roo, grew into a very nice hen.

The Wyandottes, I don't know.

These chicks are way too young to use the hackle and saddle feathers as guides. At this point, the chicks are a bit young to sex but I suspect the second SLW of being a roo given the comb development on it.

I just noticed the comb development today myself and decided to take the pictures and compare them. I can handle one roo but not 2....
