Favorelle and Sussex Speckled chicks m/f?

[Frostflowers]

Hi!

I'm very new to raising chickens and would like to know if I have got male or female chicks growing.
I have googled myself crazy already.
There are three of them right now and these are pics of their wings.

Thank you!

Too young to tell. And sexing by wing feathers doesn't usually work. Wait till they are older than 8 weeks, then you look at their combs and saddle feathers.

From what I can make out of its head your ss appears female thus far but they are not wing sexable (most birds aren't).

The favorelle appears female based on wing coloring but hard to say definitively at this point. How old are they? Can you post full pics of them including faces?

Welcome!
Post pictures of the entire chick, one at a time would be nice, but clear photos anyway, at about three weeks of age.
Wing feather sexing isn't in play here at all.

Favorelle are color sexable a lot of the time once they're a couple weeks old. In the beginning it can be a bit meh

Salmon favorelle males and females have entirely different coloration. If I remember right it’s most obvious in their chest color when young.

The wings of salmon Favorelles will be distinctly different color after about 2-3 weeks with males a black color and females having brown (which this appears to). Hatchery females have some black too but it fades out over time as it's replaced by the brown coloring.

They are about 2 weeks old.
