Gender Me Up! :) (Pictures)

I say all pullets.

Munk - the coloring and the comb just look like a hen
Sula - I'm thinking pullet, but that might just be wishful thinking. The comb is a little bigger and more red than I'd like to be sure.
Joon - Dark barring + minimal comb + dark stripe down the front of the legs = pullet
 
Thank you all SO much for responding, and I am confirmed that Sula is actually a Sheldon. Out of the three, Sula/Sheldon is the most flighty, and.. Well he I guess lol does this loud cheeping when either of the other two go out of sight. The tail thing is what REALLY got me though. I will wait until he/she crows, but then I must find a new home because sadly I can't have roosters where I live... Pishposh on Sacramento.

I am THRILLED to hear both Joon and Munk appear as pullets, they are both so friendly it is awesome. They jump right on my shoulder, and neither of them seem to have the seperation anxiety Sula/Sheldon has. I had a second barred rock I rehomed as well, got four chicks to widdle down to those I wanted, and it worked out well this time.

Should I get lucky and Sheldon just isn't a loud Roo (ha.ha.ha) I would try to keep her/him. I just don't want her/him going for meat, and Craigslist in Sacramento is CRAWLING with people looking for any and all birds for slaughter. I don't mind meat birds, but this chicky would do better on a farm with a shared flock of babes. LOL wistful thinking? Thanks again for responding. I am so happy about Munk and Joon, though I feel bad about my little Sula. Shoulda known. 'She' was the latest to get tail feathers, and when she did they are already curved like a boyo lol.

thanks again guys!

This is a picture of Sula I recently took. Some loud noise rang out, and all three chicks froze. Joon and Munk froze horizontal (ish) and Sula froze like this:
(sorry for the fencing, she went behind the top of their 'transport bin' lol)
