Need some help on identifying breeds and possible gender

[Wyandottes7]

Chick #1 is a RIR or Production Red, and yes, looks to be a pullet.

Chick #2 is a Plymouth Barred Rock...and...I could go either way on that one. I've had Barreds mature early and lay early...and while red, that's not a lot of comb....so hmmmmm....I'd wait and see if that is indeed some crowing come from it before I declare it a done deal.

I agree the rest are mostly Silkie crosses for reasons stated by other posters.

Need some help defining sex of one of my astralop.I got 3 chick's given to me & it looks like one could be a him.

Agreed.

I am leaning towards cockerel with Chick #2, though.

it will be sad if it ends up that the first chick I ever hatched is a roo because I can't keep it but I am really leaning towards roo also. Luckily I don't have to get rid of it until it starts crowing so I'll wait a bit longer just in case it's just an early maturing pullet.

Is it still too early to tell the gender on the 5 3-week olds?

Yep, too early, sorry... generally 6-8 weeks is when they really start showing gender, but your Silkie mixes may take longer... Silkies are notoriously hard to sex...
