Gender help for Bantam Cochins

[gil716]

Hello, would like the community's help in figuring out gender of these chooks. They are almost 3 months old. Wife would also like to know if green iridescence is a sure sign of a male.

Let me know if more pics are needed. Thanks.

All the birds pictured are cockerels. Sorry!
No, green shine doesn't have anything to do with gender. Just the comb, and feathering.

I see three boys. Yes, green iridescence is usually a sign of a male, but some black hens do shine green in the right light (Australorps.)

All three are cockerels.

Cockerels. Green iridescence is not a sure sign of a male, the only sure signs are male-specific feathering and rapid comb and wattle growth at a young age.

cockerels - sorry

Thanks for all the replies! We suspected as much. Time to look for homes.

I have two others that I'm hoping are girls. Will try to get some snaps of them as well.

No one likes to be the bearer of bad news. Unfortunately, I think every last one of those birds are cockerels. Whoever sold them to you probably knew it, too.
