Hello everyone -- amazing community here, I'm so thankful to get to follow people's questions and the many detailed and thoughtful responses. My chickens are Farm and Home bought so I didn't have a lot of input into what chick they pulled out other than "one of those, two of them", etc. They were born the first week of April -- so like many of the others here asking, mine are in their 10th week as well.

Can you help me identify a couple and sex these?

First up is Sammy -- the Salmon Faverolle, most inquisitive and sweet chicken ever. I'm pretty sure she's a she. #2 is Buffy -- sweetest Buff Orpington. #3 Rosy -- what is she? And she's a she, right?
#4 Bay, HUGE black sex-link -- I have to wonder if she's a he. #5 Summy -- a Welsummer. A she, yes. Right? #6 Cora -- Gold Laced Wyandotte - girl, yes? #7 Obviously Lena is not the Colombian Wyandotte I asked for -- she's an Appenzeller Spitzhauben -- and I know that because I look at everyone's pictures on here too! Now is her name of Lena (popular Swiss name for a Swiss chicken) apt? #8 Jersey -- a Jersey giant - curious girl #9 Honey - my second sweet Buff Orpington and #10 Philly -- Philly, because I don't know if she's Phyllis or Phillip and I don't know what it is. Until Bay grew so big in the last couple weeks, this chicken was always the biggest and I suspected was a rooster in the making. But now I'm not so sure . . . I have to end with Sammy again -- she's just so photogenic.

Thank you for anyone who takes the time to comment. Much appreciated!

#3 Rosy is your Welsummer, #5 Summy is an EE.

I see nothing that says cockerel in any of them. I'm afraid I don't recognize Philly's breed, clearly not one I've had so I can only tell you what it ISN'T.
