Is this a rooster or hen

[Therese Brown]

I inherited these chicks. They are Rhode island red and cinnamon queen mixes. They are about 16 weeks old and I have a feeling that at least 1 of these chickens is a rooster but I can't tell if both of the bigger ones are roosters or not

I agree, the two with large combs

You’re one in the last photo that more closely resembles a RIR looks roo. I think I see pointy/thinner saddle and hackle feathers. The cinnamon looking one is harder for me because their neck feather give the illusion of this and pointy and there isn’t a super clear photo.

How do you know. I'm just asking because I have 18 babies that are supposed to be female and I can't figure out how to tell. I figured one of these was because he started trying to crow but the 2nd one hasn't yet

Male hackles and saddles. Plus the comb!

My Sapphire roo is easy to see saddle feather shape because of his coloration. You’re looking for more stout legs, long/pointy/thin/cascading saddle feathers (behind wings, from back area), pointy and thinner hackle feathers (from neck down). Also earlier comb development is a good indicator.

Thank you. Was trying to figure out the last one myself because he/she looks like the cinnamon queens but I saw him/ her seem to square off with the other that I think is a rooster. The one that I think is a rooster is starting to figure out how to crow even though not strong yet. The one in the last photo hasn't made a peep yet.
