I'm no good at guessing (so please don't take me seriously); I agree on black and I'd also guess purple is a boy. Tiny bit suspicious of blue as well.

They are just beautiful

They are so sweet!

Oh man, I'm not good at guessing these things at all so don't hold me to this...

Purple, Blue, Black...Boys.

Green...that's iffy, I'll say Boy for now.

LC is a Girl!

One time I had like 7 chicks hatch...only ONE girl out of the bunch. Yep, it can happen...

My original SR Sussex group were 7 boys vs. 3 girls...

Thanks to both you and @CoopBoots for your input. I'm hoping for at least 2 pullets.

Just a guess.

I think purple, blue, black are boys.

Green and LC are girls.

My first hatch was with a broody.
3 boys 1 girl.

Second hatch was also with a broody. I think there were 8 babies.
5 boys and 3 girls.

The first three were the first eggs I placed under Martha. All boys?!

Green and LC were the staggered eggs, 4 days behind BUT which hatched 3 days after, Day 20.

FWIW, the boys will NOT be staying, as they have yellow legs.

I'm so mean...
