Girls or boys

Ok here we go, any of these babies that you think are looking obviously like a roo or pullet at this stage? All 4 weeks, I know too early to be sure, but appreciate thoughts either way!

2 photos of each chick, 5 in total.

So far nothing jumps out at me screaming male.

I'm thinking that the black chicken in the third picture is looking like a male to me

Agreed, no clearly male birds, I think you'll have to wait longer to be sure of anything, but I am suspicious of the third chick (black bird, visible light-colored crest) myself. I'd watch that one for signs of roosterdom, the comb just looks much larger and more visible than the other similar-looking chick's comb.

I would keep an eye on the 2 black ones. They're looking a bit suspect to me.

Update again in 3-4 weeks.
At this age, it's very common to mis-sex chicks because they're growing into their body.

I don't like to start sexing my birds till they're about 2.5 months.

If I may ask, what breeds are those white ones?

Thanks all! Yes this black one is the one I think could most be a rooster at the moment, the comb is the biggest (also the biggest chick overall) but it’s very yellow at the moment, so we’ll see if it turns red soon. I will be surprised if (Twinkle Star ) turns out to be a hen

None are known for certain, but my guess is 1. Austra white and 2. White Plymouth Rock

Oh no! Not Twinkle Star

Alright, I gotcha! Thanks!
