[Kirlou85]

these are mainly barnyard mixes I have only hatched 1 myself which is the 4 week old that ones dad is a gold laced Orpington and mum is rir white Sussex the brown one with comb has rounded feathers and pale comb plus one of the breeds the lady told me have big combs on the hens so I’m stumped with that one

All of them

All of them

Yes I would say all are male. Combs being that big and that red so early in development is not a good sign regardless of whether they're a large-combed breed or not. As an example here is my brown leghorn/cream legbar mix at 4 months:

And here she is at nearly a year old:

She has one of the largest combs in the whole flock, but it didn't get big until she was much older. Females' combs shouldn't turn red until around point of lay, and usually they don't grow very much in size before then. Early comb development, especially with reddening, should always be looked at suspiciously because chances are it's a rooster.

Looking back at the pictures, I seem to have skipped the third picture of a red chicken with a smallish comb. That one looks like it is a hen if I read correctly that it's 13 weeks.

Only 1 has a red comb the others are pale.

The brown one you have labeled as "13 weeks" is a pullet. All the others are male.

3 is a pullet, 4 and 5 are 'for sure' cockerels, and 1 and 2 are likely cockerels.

Only 1 has a red comb the others are pale.

The ones that have paler combs still have very large combs for their ages.
