4th pic is a cockerel, and 8th pic looks suspicious.

Were these chicks asleep before you took these pics?

I agree with the above. 4th pic looks to be a male. I think it is too early to be sure on some of the other ones.

 

[Chickensandchicks]

Very good. Yes, all 10.

Thank you so much for noticing...I am still learning

3rd pic looks like a pullet and 8th looks like a cockerel. 5th looks like female but is a little blurry. 100% sure that 4th is male.

Why did you ask if they were sleeping? And what do you mean by suspicious?

Suspicious of being a possible cockerel.

I asked if they were sleeping because chick 2 and especially chick 5, look ill. If they were just woken, maybe that could explain it.

ETA: Chick 7 looks unwell too.

Oh thanks ....should I add something to their water to help? I think they just weren't happy with being taken away from their heater

They really do look ill. Check their poops. It might be worth it to treat them with Corrid. It can't hurt them.

Dose is 2 tsp of the liquid, or 1 1/2 tsp of the powder per gallon of water. Treated water needs to be changed daily and made fresh. Treat for 7 days with the Corrid water being the only available water source.
