how can i sex them in the future.

You can sex the brown around 2-3 weeks old, if the breast feathers are spotted it's a female. If they are solid gold or rust colored it's a male. The other two have to be vent sexed, and this time of year, unless you keep them inside, that probably won't be possible till spring. If they're inside, then around 5-8 weeks old they'll start crowing if they're male.

Alrighty, then the brown chest is spotted but belly is all gold. SOooooooo a girl? LOL

I am gonna keep them inside for a while. I would say they are 5 weeks old. I will have to youtube their crow. When do they start laying?

I got 2 buttons as well. One blue/grey and one white....LOL My daughter couldn't resist

Sorry I Was Just About To Say That Its Way Too Early To Tell Sex And Re-read Your Post And Saw It Said They Are About 5 Wks Old---- So I Edited The Response( Bear With Me I Have Been Moving Birds And Pens All Day...). My Brain As Well As My Body Is Tired...
