Help with gender

Both ameracaunas, are roos as I've had them before. The r.i.r may be a roo too but can't see its body. If you put your hand on its body and it squats down its a female (they do this when they are ready for a rooster to mate with them).
 
I believe you have 3 cockerels. Where did you buy them? How old when you got them? Were they sold as straight run, or as pullets? Side view of RIR would be helpful. Based on initial pics, I'm going with male for all three!
I got them in our local feedstore and was told that they were sexed and they were 2 days old. Hopefully this photo is good enough. Thanks!
This is my first time posting on BackYard Chickens, as I could use some help. I purchased five chicks and am concerned I may have several roosters and unfortunately the local laws do not allow for roosters. They are all 19 weeks old today. One is a Rhode Island Red (RIR) and the other two Ameraucanas. I'm thinking the RIR is a male, but wouldn't roosters be crowing already? Thanks ahead of time for you help.
