i have indian game male and he has made chicks with a sussex and a bramah! is there anyway to tell chicks appart?

day 3 sofar and wings on 2 have black tips on yellow baby and chipmunk, look sux to me
and the other yellow turning gold like the bramah day 3 also has a butt head like a bramah, so i suspect bramah!
has anyone ever bred these 2 and knows any signs?

also the chicks have all alternating wings, smal big feathrs like how i was told to sex my game chick, is that trait passable ?
 
What colors are the parents? If you meant Brahma then those chicks could possibly be feather legged and that'd be a sign it's the Brahmas chicks
no feather on any, even the brama eggs lol but this butt head has to be a brama as they are the only breed i know they looked like a butt head as pols,

i have chipmunks, and yellows,
i was told that when they have wing feathers big smal big small early on its a girl, and when there all even its a boy,

was also told girls will get tail and wings first as these are huuuge where as the little one has non.

but now im told that the 1 curve means a boy and the 2 step means a girl which contradicts that

so most sexing says there 2 girls and a boy when another says 2 boys and a girl?

This is only accurate if bred for. Some pullets will feather in slowly. It can be a rule of thumb but treat it as an old wives tale, not a guideline. Are Sussex and Brahma the only possibilities? Other chicks can get defined foreheads, I've seen the "butthead" on other breeds with big eyebrows before too!
other possiblities would be my decalb x wynadotte babys 'toes 'sweetpea and lavendar, but there small chickens, ive hatched their babys last year they come out small and game like, chipmunks and yellows too but normally alot smaller than these,

i hoped for sussex brama as last year normally they cookoo their eggs in and i only get theirs but this time i have collected and hatched in an incubator, i do have mixed batch in the bator but ive never seen a butt head so assume thats a brama plus its giant comapred to the rest, and going brown gold like the brama mum,

the little one has the susex wing speckles, but slow wing and feather growth and 2curve wing, from my obs i assume this male,

the chipmonk has speckled wings too full development early on and had the small big small big wing growth day 2,

today i hatched an egg i know was a bramah, it came out yellow and no feathers on legs, however now the egg hatched i though was my 3 cookoo chickens and has a butt head ( bramahs eggs are elongated and sometimes round like the others)(the others all lay same shape and colour egg)
