Nobody is crowing…yet. Pullet or cockerel?

[Aglow]

I’m sitting for three chicks. They’re now 12 weeks old. Any assistance is appreciated in identifying breed and sex.

What breeds? They’re mixed and came from a farm. I think two are in the Rhode Island Red family. The third is a mystery.

Pulleys or cockerels? One has a cross-beak and is a bit small. Any assistance in reading the signs for identification is appreciated.

I am going to say

Pullet
Pullet
Cockerel

#2 has some thick looking legs but I will still say pullet

Last one is the only one that looks like a cockerel. I’m not the best at breed identification but possibly the first ones are Buckeyes. I have two of them but I can’t tell you what color their legs are

I see two pullets and a cockerel.

I third this - The first pic looks all girl to me. The second has a lot of pink in the comb, but no real ruff and almost no wattles. Your crossbeak looks all-boy - pointed ruff, curving tail feathers and a bright red comb.

EDIT to add - The second bird looks "girlie" to me. I wouldn't bet on it, yet, but I'd say "pullet."

Thanks for the response. I appreciate it.

Thank you. The second chick is very interesting to watch develop.

LOL. Thank you! I am seeking thoughts on the breed especially for the second chick. I know they’re all barnyard mixes. But that second chick is a mystery in how they act and interact with the others. Very docile.
