New to raising chickens - Need help with gender

[korn6015]

I put up a 10x20 yard and bought a coop kit (which I wouldn't recommend). I should have just found someone to build a good one for me!! But anyhow, it's up with 6 nesting boxes and about a 3x4 interior with the boxes at the side of that.
On July 15th I bought 6 1-wk old chicks from TSC. Black Australorps. So they are now 10 wks and I STILL have no clue as to gender! I've looked at the discussions where you have helped others and hope you can help me with the newest pictures I've taken. If you CAN tell me the differences and how you decide, tell me what you saw that helped to determine that if you can.
Thanks. Love this site!!
Thought I had editted these so they would be the correct orientation. Don't know why they are showing up this way!

Welcome to Backyard Chickens Susan. Great photos where the birds marked straight run as looks like you have all pullets there

I agree, looks like pullets to me as well

All birds pictured are pullets. The rule of thumb is 4 square feet in the coop and about 10 square feet in the run. For 6 birds you would need around 24 square feet in the coop and 60 square feet in the run.

They seem to be determined to sleep UNDER the coop, which has a wired in base about 1.5 ft high. I think the nesting boxes are OK, but from your comment I probably need a bigger coop area. I may be able to just extend the coop with an added roof and maybe that will let me put in more roosts inside.

Thanks so much for your help. "All girls" is a great relief!!

(Did I post this correctly? Or should I have posted in the forums?)

Hello, and welcome to BYC. It looks like you struck the 'all pullet' jackpot.

I agree with everyone else that they are all pullets. Welcome to backyard chickens!

Jackpot indeed! I was scared that I might have multiple roos and worried about what to do! Is it the comb that gives you guys the info you need for the pullet decisions?

Yes and they don't have boy hackle or saddle feathers.
