Leghorn? They have substantial combs, even the females. It's not so much the size of the comb but speed and timing of changes. If it was a tiny, yellow ridge last week, you likely have a male. Female combs grow more slowly until they near POL but they do grow and they can look pinkish.

These two have not yet laid or crowed and I seem to have a cockerel in the mix due to fertilized eggs. Can you tell me if one of these two are my culprit?

1. Blu'

2. Spike

Girls. Are you sure the eggs are fertile - like have they been incubated, or do you just think they look fertile?

There are some with bulls eyes and others that are not. They look to be fertilized but I just put some in the incubator to see for sure so I'll be able to tell in 2 more days for sure.

Any others that could be male? And how old are these?

You should still see male behavior if you have a hen-feathered cockerel fertilizing eggs.
