I can identify your chickens sex and breed 80% of the time

Ones a male the others a female
A couple questions:
What comb type
What color skin



This is a easter egger,
green legs not slate or black
Amerucana lay blue eggs
Easter eggers can lay,blue,green,brown,white or pink
No muffs or beard

Check her skin what color is it?
Does she have a pea comb
Skin I'm not sure, but pea comb single row
 
This is the one I'm really in question about!

Pooh, so is the pea comb sexing not a good indicator for EE's?
Do you mean the single row of peas versus three rows of peas? No, that's not accurate. I've bred plenty of Easter Egger pullets with three row combs, and several cockerels with only a single row. The rate of comb development is much more accurate.

Yes that's what I ment, thanks for clearing that up for me. Now would that explain why he attacked my other 2 roos, they are 5 weeks old but big boys!
 
What you reckon on these 3?
I ended up with 2 cockerels from my last intake so decided to take in another 3 from the same farm, hope they are all pullets.
Also the top ginger has grazing under the wing and on the top of leg, could this be an injury from being beaten or something more serious? It is only on the left side
