Hen or rooster?? I NEED HElP!

[SueT]

So they are only 6 weeks? When you got them on March 15, they were tiny chicks? Did you take pics then?

Oh wow they're only 6 weeks old? Yeah looks like a bunch of boys and maybe one pullet

Thank you for your help. I thought I went into being a chicken owner prepared, I truly appreciate all of the help

They were very tiny, I was told they were a week old when I purchased them. However I do not have any photos available of them when I first got them. I have some of them from 3 weeks ago if that helps any?

Well then they are only 6 or at most 7 weeks. Here's what my hen looked like at 6 weeks:
So now I don't think any of yours are female. ) :

All birds male,can we pictures of tails and backs?

One looks like a pullet, but it does look like you have more cockerels than pullets. Sorry That is one trouble with tractor supply chicks when its straight run.

Unfortunately, they were in a pulley bin. It is what it is. It's very sad I'm so attached to these little guys.

Absolutely, when I go out to let them out ill grab them up and do a photo shoot.

At 6 weeks, tail and back pics aren't going to tell you much. That person is wanting to look at the saddle feathers, but male and female saddle feathers don't start to come in until their 12 weeks or so.
I'm sorry to have to agree, that these are all male.
