Males or Females?

Can someone please help me identify my chickens? They’re roughly 3 1/2 - 4 months old. 2 were hatched 2 weeks before the 3rd. The little black one ( also the youngest) crows in the day, never at dawn or in the middle of the night and it’s not overly loud unless you’re standing right by her/him. I know hens can crow as a sign of dominance or taking on the role of a roo when no rooster is present. Which is why I’m so confused, because I feel as though Bean (the black one) doesn’t have a large comb or other obvious signs, but they’re all still young and aren’t ready to lay yet. However, I can’t have roosters in my area and I’m desperate to know!
I’m a new backyard chicken owner so please forgive me for my ignorance on chicken sexes..

They all look like boys. :( the colors, the saddle feathers coming in, the combs and wattles, the sickle feathers starting in their tails... none of them have single combs which is probably why comparatively they seem small...
Thank you so much for your reply, I will look to rehome them... poor babies :((
