I THINK THE FEED STORE CHEATED ME ?!?!?!? Pullet a roo?!

You said the person at the feed store "guessed". Since neither that person, nor you, could tell what was what, I don't see that anyone cheated you.

Time will tell whether the chicks are males or female.
Exactly. Sounds like the feed store person didn't know for sure, and neither did you. If you wanted a guarantee, then that's something to work out with the seller beforehand. You also could have walked away when the feed store person told you they didn't know for sure. Caveat emptor, I'm afraid.
 
I think my black star pulley is really a roo! Can someone please help here's the other babies as well I'm concerned the feed store lied about all of them

If this chick is a Black Sex-link, then it is a male, as pullet BSLs are almost pure black, while the cockerels have white patches on their head. If it is a Barred Rock (which is more likely, IMO), then it is too early to tell its gender. Post new photos in 4-5 weeks, and then the gender will be a bit more evident.

This bird is probably either a Red Sex-link or a hatchery-quality Rhode Island Red. If it really is a RSL, then it is a pullet, as males of that breed are yellowish when they hatch. If it is a Rhode Island Red, then, as with the above chick, it is too early to tell the gender.

I have no idea the breed the feedstore employee guessed red star/red sex-link

I'm pretty sure that this is an Easter Egger (a blue-green egg laying cross that most hatcheries call Ameraucanas) as the coloring is typical of an Easter Egger. EEs are difficult to sex until they get older, so, once again, I can't tell right now.

Supposed ameruacana Mocha

This chick is probably a White Leghorn or a White Plymouth Rock. You won't know for sure until it gets older and develops obviously colored earlobes (Rocks have red earlobes, while leghorns have white earlobes). Its too early to tell the gender.

And I'm 99% that its a white leghorn because how can a feedstore get that wrong plus she's very spunky, Onyx

Thanks for the help I have more pictures if needed
