I think I got all cockerels!

[MamaJ1977]

Help! My wife picked up 3 chicks to go with the stray we adopted. She got them from a lady on Craigslist so all bets are off as far as boys or girls but now I’m obsessing. Good news is that she’ll take back the ones who don’t turn out to be girls. Any guesses? Photos aren’t great but hopefully give an idea? They’re in random order too so hopefully that’s not too confusing. I have no idea on ages or breeds either. Maybe 3-4 weeks? Any help is much appreciated!

A bit young yet. Post more in a few weeks. The splash is looking rooster but give it a few weeks yet.

The splash bird is definitely a cockerel. I think you should wait a few more weeks for the others.

Thanks so much! Which is the splash?

Only a guess, but the white one looks like a rooster.
The orange one looks like a hen.
The brown also looks roosterish, but hard to tell yet.

Thanks so much! Which is the splash?

The white one with grey speckles

Gotcha. So the orange one might be a hen, dark brown one maybe a rooster and white one probably a rooster. There are 2 orange ones in there, one is the stray and the other we got today which is think is a Buff Orpington? I am cool with one rooster, but more than that is pushing it. Thanks for your guesses!
