They all look so similiar and its hard to get them to stand still for a picture
 
I think I see a couple of boys in there, but it's so hard to tell not being able to see their feather colors properly.

Maybe someone that has a bit more experience can tell from those pictures, but I think if you take some good pictures of them from the side so we can see their feathering better you would get more accurate responses.

if you can catch them...take a look at the feathers around their necks if they are slinder long and pointed then you have a roo if they are fat and rounded like normal feathers on a hen then its a hen...heres some pics to help

roo is in frount notice the feathers around his neck are slinder long and pointed

heres anouther pic of a light brahma hen notice how her neck feathers are fater than on the roos, color patteren prevents you from seen that they are rounded

I see 3 boys.


Take a look at your chicks, you'll notice 3 of them are black and white splotchy all over but with some reddish brown coming in on the wings - Those are your boys.


The white ones with reddish brown on the breast and head are definite girls.
