Male or female? Are these “rooster streamers?”

Vancouver island. Bc. Canada.
I have a few Silkies that have obvious streamers but I’m not sure about these three they have really rounded heads and not very big crests but it kinda looks like streamers maybe but it could just be normal I’m not too sure?
They stand kinda upright sometimes and the tails/bums aren’t completely round but I think they are drizzle which makes it more difficult.
They are 11 or 12 weeks old.

A lot of these look like pullets. There are a few I would watch though. Update in 2 weeks.

Thanks for the tag.😊
I do not see any obvious streamers. Pullets can have short streamers at this age.
Comb photos are better indicators at this age. Post photos of clear close up front view comb of each bird for a better assessment. Even then, may be too early.😉
 
I trimmed their fur on the eye area since they were barely able to see (I did this *after* the first photos) since it alters their appearance.

I just might mix up who’s who now lol. The first #1 One I can still tell her/him apart cause they have way different eyes than the others. But the other 2 I’m not100% I also didn’t get the greatest pic of #2 thanks everyone!!
