My family is debating - is Yogurt a cockerel or a pullet?

They are chicks at the moment- I’ve got myself into a mess lol. They are play fighting but maybe it’s because the oldest one is a boy and the youngest one but the pullet gets involved sometimes aswell - I’m trying to get them pullets and I’m not sure if I should keep them all together with there parents and the other chickens aswell - I was thinking just get them pullets and get them two chickens coops and they can go outside separated during the day and in the coops separated at night with their girls x

Ya never know until they grow up and live a while whether they'll be compatible. I've got 13 (and maybe more, that's just off the top of my head) roosters in my flock and they do fine. Everyone has "their" area. If #2 roo is willing to accept he's #2, it can work. Biggest thing to watch for of course is fighting but the other almost worst possibility is if they start to gang up on females - one holds the hen's head down while the other .... and then they switch and repeat -- that's problematic for any females if they learn that trick.

Yogurt is a silver laced wyandotte, around two months old, and I want some expert opinions we suspect our girl may be a boy, but we don't know for sure. What do you think?
(Excuse the mess - we're raising them inside as we don't have the supplies to raise them outside in the cold just yet!)

Cockerel!
