I got these chicks about a week ago and want to know if these are hens or roosters.
First 2 photos are one chick

Other 4 are one chick

Hi and welcome to BYC!

I'm inclined to agree with Sussex19 that second photo shows a mighty big comb and although it's very early the others also have fairly big combs for ones so young.

Definitely keep us up to date with photos but they are a big young to sex with any kind of certainty. I've have waited impatient every time so far! I've managed to get to 4 and half weeks old before I've asked for views on my chicks and now they are 5 and a half and I'm still not sure 🤭
