How old are they? This breed tends to get a lot of pink early. With not knowing their age, and from the pictures, I would say pullets. :)

They are different ages about a week apart. The one standing in the water bowl is the oldest and about 9 weeks. The ones on the metal kennel next to each other are about 7-8 weeks old... the one on the kennel by itself (last picture) is the same one that's in the back in the picture of two on top (first picture) I feel like he may be my only cockerel because its the only one that has a comb that sticks up. The other two are flat in the front without any bumpy combs on them.
 
Thank you chrissynemetz and ChickNanny13! That is something new I learned! Glad to hear that they are all pullets. Yay! So far I feel that most of my feed-store bought straightruns (from Hoovers Hatchery) have been all cockerels but that is partially also my fault, I usually go for the larger colored chick that tends to stand out and those tend to be the cockerels.
 
Second guessing my "pullet" guess ... The first picture, chick on the board in question. The hackle feather seem to be more slim & legs thick, thinking its a cockerel as is the one in the last pic. The one to the right in the first pic & water bowl guessing pullets.

The lacing is pretty distinct.
