I have 4 chickens, which are all 6 1/2 weeks old.

Please have a look at these pictures and tell me if you think I have a rooster. I have 2 Welsummers, and 2 White Australorps, which are a combo of an Australorp and White Leghorn.

NONE OF THEM HAVE CROWED YET! (Thank God)

Welsummers are GIRLS...... the boys are redder very young....... and darker..... Girls start getting the lighter head right away
 
They all look like pullets to me.
Here are some pics of some of my chicks that are the same age.

Yeah they look like pullets to me as well, maybe the far back one in the first pic has a larger comb? not sure just looked like it in the pic.

I have 4 barred rock and 2 BO chicks and you can definitely tell on them and they are only 6 weeks, the roos have alot more red on their comb and wattles, its not always easy on other breeds but they look like pullets to me

The welsummers are for sure pullets. The whites also look like pullets.
