So they have been in the big coop for 2 weeks but still go in the crate at night because Nala, one of the older silkies (5 1/2 months) still picks on them some during the day. (Is is normal for one to not take to the new flock?)

Anyway,

Leo looks like a pullet but I'm not sure, Stitch is a cockerel, Elsa is a girl, Gizmo look like a boy, Nala look like a cockerel but doesn't look like he/she has wattles, but it may be because of the beard.
 
Absolutely normal! As long as there isn't blood or extreme feather loss, it's just life and they will figure it out! Super cute!
Thanks! I feel better. I watch them a lot during the day but it honestly seems like when she doesn’t know I’m there she bullies them. So I’ve been keeping them in a Great Dane crate in the coop at night.

Thanks! I thought Stitch and Gizmo both were cockerels, Nalas personality has had me wondering lately.
