need help sexing the 10 13 week old blackrock/rhodeislandred cross.

yea thanks it did take a while especially when the phone ran out of battery half way through. :D We also love the one with the funky crest, will send you the picture of the mother if you like she is similar but totally black gets called granny.

The last three you think are roos they are alot smaller than number 3, also the wattles are tiny in comparison?

just (clucking) at straws need some new ladies!
Yeah, their combs aren't as large, but I'm looking at that darker shading on the wings, that's a guy thing. Hens are more evenly colored, smoother and drab to blend into the background. Roosters are patchy colored, flashy, to draw attention. I'd love to have updates to see how things pan out for you!
 
That's exactly what we and our allotment friend thought?
However I want them to be hens so didn't think I was giving a impartial view.
I have raised 6 golden wyne dott bantams who were 1000% easier to identify
 
My guesses are,

1. pullet
2. pullet
3. cockerel
4. cockerel
5. pullet
6. pullet (leaning towards, not sure though)
7. pullet
8. Not sure. Leaning towards pullet.
9. Not sure, leaning towards cockerel
10. pullet
