Gender confirmation

Hi! We have some young chickens but pretty sure we heard some crowing this morning. Now we are trying to figure out if we potentially have more than one rooster.

These are the 3 (personality wise) we think could be cockerels. We are nearly certain the gray silkie is male. We’d love your opinion on the lavender Orpington and black ameracauna!

Do you know the age?

The silkie & lavender are 13 weeks

The ameracauna is 10 weeks old!

I think the Silkie and the lavender are male not sure on the other one.

Thank you so much for your input! Out of curiosity, do you think the lavender is male because of the hackles? Fingers crossed the black ameracauna is just on the feisty side!
