Here are some updated photos from my EE. They are now just 10 weeks old.

I previously posted pics and I'm wanting to see if there are any change of opinions.










This one I can't tell at all.









Finally I have 4 Rhode Islands that all look similar to this
.

Thanks for any help.
 
Yep all very beautiful girlies

the white i woud watch they are to sex due to coloring and comb sexing isn't always acurate. as for the otheres the 2nd is 110% pullet and the rir looks like a pullet as well
 
The ee are pullets, and if the red bird is the same age it should be a pullet also.
 
Thanks for the help. When I posted pics 2 weeks ago everyone seemed to think the white one was a roo so that's why I was posting a followup.
 
White birds can be quite tricky! I'm going off the comb, the single row is an indicator of females. And I think the pure white is more common on females, the males tend to get some leakage of color.......you know, to attract the ladies!
 
This evening while sitting with the chicks I noticed some different feathers on Owlie. I don't know what they are? They are kinda hard. Any advise would be appreciated.


I am referring to the thin ones in the middle of the back.
 
I would say the white one is a roo. Looks just like my 16 week old roo. Only mine molted and has a dark feather in his tail now.
