These chicks are 5 weeks old. I know it can be difficult to tell which are roosters and hens. I think the 2 red bands and possibly the green band are Roos. Yellow bands and purple band I believe are hens. Any thoughts? How long should I wait to know for sure? Thanks!
 
it is hard to tell at this age, but the one with the red band by the waterer looks like a roo to me because of its colourful comb; the others I can't tell from these photos. Can you get a shot side on at their level, rather than from above? and ideally not in full sun, to show the feathering better?
