Feather sexing - girl or boy

[Jinglebell]

For those who does feather sexing, what do you think of the chicks in the pictures, girl or boy ? They are gold laced Orpingtons, all born on Easter Day... Day 2 today.
They are quite fluffy , so hard to get a good picture of the wings... hopefully you can tell

My guess would be pictures 4 and 6 are male but I don't know for sure.

If you mean the kind of feather sexing that has diagrams all over the internet about feathers that are the same length vs. staggered short/long, it DOES NOT WORK unless you cross specific types of parents. It relies on the fast feathering/slow feathering genes being inherited in a certain fashion (fast father, slow mother makes slow sons and fast daughters.) If both parents are fast-feathering, so are all chicks. If both parents are slow-feathering, most or all of the chicks are too.

If you mean something that is supposed to work on all chicks regardless of genetics, I believe @MysteryChicken is the current expert.

Can you redo the pictures with the extra fluff pulled back abit, so I can see all the feather buds/pins clearer please?
