Gender Help Please

[peckyscotch]

There are three light Sussex's and one Verwerk. They are just about 4 weeks old but I'm not sure what gender they are yet... I was thinking that the big one at the top is a hen as he/she has a bigger tail than the rest and I heard that was a sign of a girl. I also think that the Verwerk is a girl as he/she is small and has quite a large tail, I completely don't know about the others though.

Side profile pictures would be more helpful. However, I'm leaning towards cockerel on the Light Sussex in the first photo, based off of the larger comb.

Also that bird appears to be a good bit larger.

Hard to say they are pretty young....
I may be totally wrong but I think females develop their feathers sooner.... That may help you out.

The other birds, at least for now, look like pullets.

The only real sign this early is the comb being bigger, but that isn't a very reliable sign. I thought for sure I had a roo in this picture until she started laying.
