Certainly I’m no expert, but would we need pictures that show the top of their head? Maybe @Overo Mare would know?

The poultry site below says the following: “The sex of purebred Barred Plymouth Rocks chicks can be determined on the basis of the size and shape of a light-colored spot on the top of the head. At hatch, males have a large white spot. The spot is much smaller and narrower in females. This has been found to be about 80% accurate.”

If it's accurate (which typically it has to be bred for), the last one seems to be a cockerel. The solid yellow legs also point to cockerel.

Post pics at 6-8 weeks and we will know for sure.
