Im thinking all female if so that’s amazing!

 

[Cool_Catrules456]

Named the two females
Brown one. Poptart. (I like naming my golden sexlinks after pastries (the other on is called toast))
Black one: monster (after the energy drink as she is the most active chick ive ever seen)
And the last one is: coco! Because they look like a small little coco bean.

I thought they where sexlinks, sexlinks can be sexed on color of chicks at birth. And if not ive feather sexed them and i am correct. Females have different sized feathers on their wings while males are all mostly the same size. It does not work for all breeds but it is a nice way to make a guess. Heres how to tell sexlinks apart.: golden sexlinks males pure yellow/white females brown chipmunk colored
Black sexlinks- all of them are black but males have a white dot on their head.

Then again sometimes its hard to tell but id rather get a guess inand start calling them he/she and then change it later as they get older

No, they are not sexlinks. You cannot sex them by color.

Gold/silver sexlinks require a gold father and silver mother.
So a Silver Polish rooster can never be the father of this kind of sexlink.

"Black" sexlinks rely on the barring gene (causes a white spot on the head at hatch, and white barring on the feathers as the chicken grows.)
A not-barred father and a barred mother will produce barred sons and not-barred daughters.
Because this requires the mother to have barring, a "black sexlink hen" (who has no barring) can never be the mother of a black sexlink chick.

The kind of feather sexing that is used commercially only works with specific sets of parents: the father must have the genes for fast feathering and the mother must have the gene for slow feathering. This produces slow feathering sons and fast feathering daughters. So this probably does not work on your chicks either (maybe, but not likely.)

Some people claim to be able to sex chicks by their wing feathers, even without the fast/slow feathering genes. I am doubtful about that, but I have no proof either way. If that is what you are trying, I cannot say whether it will work or not.
