Hi, we've got a small flock (first timers) and I am at a complete loss on how to sex them. I have my suspicions about a FEW of them, even though the local farm I got them from stated there is a 90% probability of them being all female. They DO offer a rooster exchange, but that's not until they are 10-17 weeks old. They are exactly 2 months old today. Also, I'd like to just verify the breed they were sold as. I really didn't know what to get pictures of and some of them were a bit camera shy so I did my best. Without further ado, here are the pictures!

Black Australorps:

Penny - Slight suspicion about this one being a rooster...







Pepper










Rhode Island Red:

Patty (& Peggy) - These look completely identical to each other, and are much smaller than the other 4, so pretty sure they are pullets




Ameraucanas:

Penelope











Betty - Largest of the 6, rules the coop, I have my biggest suspicions about this one




 
Penelope and Betty are Easter Eggers not Ameraucanas, and it looks like they both may be roos
