These are them outside today. Thanks for all your replys! I would be so happy if they were all pullets since we can’t keep a rooster and we love them so much so it’s hard to give them away

Th

The buff is the only questionable one. It has a lot of color in the combs and wattles for its age, so could be a late blooming cockerel. Only time will tell the tale with that one.

Thank you! yes very red face

I'm no expert by any means, but I agree, they all look like pullets. I'm not sure if you're aware of this, but from what I know, one of the easiest ways to tell for a chicken who's older than about 12 weeks old is the saddle feathers, at the base of the tail. Pullets tend to have softer, rounded feathers, while a cockerel would have pointed saddle feathers.

The first one looks like a pullet.

The second one should be watched out for because I see pointed feathers developing and she/he has pretty big legs.

The third one has female-specific coloring.

The fourth one looks like a pullet.
