Hens or Roo?

[Hurlburt-hens]

Bought 4 "sexed" chicks from a hatchery. They are about 20 weeks old. Two have longer combs, and two have shorter ones. The markings look identical across all 4, feet and legs are the same color, no real difference in size or tail feathers. Are these just longer combs, or do I actually have 2 hens and 2 roosters? We just started getting eggs and are currently only getting 1-2 a day.

They all look like pullets

All pullets. The ones with the larger redder combs are most likely the ones you are getting the eggs from.

All pullets. Cockerels would be lighter due to their double barring.

Pullets.
They have single barring.
