I have 5 baby Embdens less than a week old. How can I tell males from females or is it too early?

Very easy to sex, girls have dark grey down over yellow boys light grey over yellow.

are these light or dark grey please??? I think they all look the same so am hoping they are girls!!

These are 48 hrs old... Any ideas gratefully received!

They look dark grey to me, comparing them to the American Blues I have - which look very light grey in comparison. So maybe they are all girls

So Miss Lydia - is that true for other breeds of geese also? - like Poms and American Blues?
thanks

Thanks all
