About 3 1/2 weeks old.

Also, are two of them rumpless? Two of the three are shaped so weird.

Still quite young. I would wait a bit more to be certain on the other two, but the third one looks like a cockerel.

How long would you recommend giving it before making a...ahem...final decision?

Till they're 6-8 weeks generally.

I would say 2 pullets and a cockerel as well

Oh, whew, I was thinking you’d say like waiting until they start laying

That works too.

I would wait longer than 6-8 weeks. I've had a few chicks that I was told from people here were "definite" cockerels who ended up being pullets.

I agree, Ameraucanas can develop a bit later. Wait until 12-14 weeks minimum, unless you have an obvious boy.
