Hi all,
We purchased 5 chicks about a month ago and they were 5 days old at the time. 80 per cent accuracy with sexing but I have a sneaking suspicion about the speckled Sussex and silver laced Wyandotte (much smaller than others and feathers taking longer to come through) are roosters. Can anyone provide any clarity? Photos 1 and 5.
thanks in advance.

1-3 are girls. Lavender Orp could be, but probably isn’t, a male. SS definitely is male.
