What are the ages,they look around theee or four months,if so,they may be roosters,escpecially at three months.
 
WELCOME! to byc..:frow
Technically they are all chickens.. Although I am unable to tell you if they are boys or girls at this time.

The legs on this one suggests Cockerel though.

I can't tell with this angle-

They look like cockerels (young roosters)
Chickens are the collective term for males and females.
rooster -- male chicken
hen -- female chicken
cockerel -- young male
pullet -- young female

welcome to BYC! :D
 
This is jasper what I believe to b a female

I'm not sure but leaning towards cockerels myself...however, what you have pictured are chickens regardless of gender;)
Pullets ate female chickens before POL
cockerels are male, young roosters ( under 1 year )
Hens are female chickens who are laying eggs
Roosters are male chickens who have matured ( over a year old )

Edit to add that pullets do not eat chickens:oops:...the word my fat fingers were looking for is ....are
