Help! Are these hens or roosters?

And that's exactly what I'm feeling most frustrated about - they were sold to us AS HENS. So....we were lied to. :/ not cool.
Thank you for the help! It's most appreciated!


Did you get them as chicks or did you get them recently?

If you post pictures of the Rocks we can help sex them.
 
Ok!

This was taken a few days ago.... Thank you! *crosses fingers*. If more pics are needed please let me know
 
And yes we got them as just hatched chicks maybe a day or 2 old...middle of May. They should be about 13-15 weeks old??
 
I have to say I think this is a bad idea. Having a couple Oops roosters is stressing the OP this much, what's it going to be like to hatch out a bunch of little cockerels that have to be re-homed, and of a breed that's so difficult to tell gender? Personally I think hatching chicks is the last thing this person should do at this point .


It was just an idea.
 
I have 6 of them. The comb is still fairly pale, just starting to pink up. Males are usually bright red before 10 weeks old. And the ratio of black to white striping is even. Males have more narrow black stripes and wider stripes of white.
 
Wow!! I have SO much to learn. I've been so focused on diet & keeping them safe. And the Internet, although full of information, isn't always clear. Thank you!!
