I really want them all to be hens but I’m afraid the two colored ones are roosters 😅 no crowing yet. They are about to be 3 months. What do you guys think about the gray/white one with the comb?

They do love each other for the most part - although the potential roosters are chest bumping and staring contests. I don’t want to separate the flock until I’m 98% sure they are Roos.
 
TBH, the only potential roo I see is the white one, and even that is questionable. I would expect a much redder comb by this age. All others appear to be pullets.

As for the chest bumps and staring contests, that's just them sorting out their pecking order. Pullets will do this just as much as roos will at this age.

Thanks for your response. So many people jumped to say the speckled ones are roosters!
