Hi I'm new to the forum and after some answers please to identify gender and breed of my 4 chicks

This is Cersei. I've been told Lohmann brown. 4 weeks old. Other pics show her at 2 weeks. Feathers have grown super fast.

Sunny-Rae. Not sure of breed. 3 weeks old. Feathering much slower than Cersei.

Australorp. This bird is showing reddish colouring throughout feathers. Is that typical though of this breed? 4 weeks old. Huge size compared to the other chick at same age.

This is theodore or theodora. Smallest of the lot. Nearly 3 weeks old.

Any ideas or should I wait awhile? I'm asking because if they are Roos, Ill have to gentle move them on as I can't keep them in my locality.

Kindest regards

Pullet

I'm super new to Chicken raising, and I have several chicks that I am on the fence about, but sometimes they make it easy, even for us newbies.
I have 3 Welsummers that aren't quite 4 weeks old, even so, this week one sprouted a significant comb, he is much less feathered, his legs are huge compared to the other 2 and he sits and walks differently with a super long neck.
It's too early to say for sure that the other 2 are pullets, but I feel fairly confident that he is a cockerel

Him

Vs her

Roo

Thanks. Its very confusing because it has some reddish orange color on its wings. Its not developing like a rooster though? I thought I read somewhere all EE roos get red wings. Something along that line.

Any help is appreciated!!! I think I have one of each in my black Australorps.. But I'm a first time chicken mom so I'm not sure!

How old? Could you get a better picture?

I am wondering about our Wendy, seven-week-old EE. "She" looks different and is more aggressive and bossy than any of her coop mates.

Looks like a cockerel

At 7 weeks old the comb is quite red. The behavior can account for some of it however many pullets are quite capable of roo-ish behavior. In my experience you will not see a comb that red, that young, on a pullet.

Thank you. When he was just a few weeks old, we thought he was being bullied and was bleeding because it was so red.
