Hello just wondering if anyone can take a guess of what gender my chicks are? They are currently 3.5 weeks. They are in the process of getting their feathers at this stage. Although the frizzle seems more advanced in the feather department 
I am certainly not experienced with this but after looking at many comparison photos, the problem I have is that they are all different breeds and possible also cross breed. So I am unable to compare them to each other. I bought the eggs for my broody hen from a breeder but was told they would be mixed bantams.
The grey chick I am unsure of the breed or mix to be honest. There is a silky cross (yellow chick) it's got 5 toes but it has light coloured legs. The smooth feathered black and white chick I think is a pekin cross breed (similar to cochin) and the other black chick is clearly a frizzle ( possibly cross pekin).. They all have flat bumpy type combs (similar to a silkie chick but pink/yellow colour), except for the the black and white smooth feathered pekin which is developing a spiky comb but it's comb seems to be more yellow than the others.
It's hard to tell as I have nothing to compare to. I feel the grey chick is most likely a cockerel and it has thicker legs, stands more upright and its comb is pinker. I've always thought that from the start though. The frizzle's comb and wattle is coming through and it's pinker than the others but it's still flat and bumpy. I am interested to see what others think though. It's probably hard with cross breeds, plus they are still pretty young
Thankyou! Interested to see what everyone thinks
