Are they single combed (hatchery stock and not actually RIW's) or rose combed? If they're single combed, you should detect the males quite easily by now; They'll have larger, more pinkish red colored combs.

Rose-combed are a little harder, but still, you should see a slight reddening to the comb, and a possibility of a more defined surface of bumps as well.
