If those indeed are Bielefelders you can sex them already.. The females will have eye liner, and the males don't. :thumbsup
That’s so funny one the kids mentioned one of the chicks “winged eyeliner” the other day 😂 I’d better have a closer look tomorrow and see. The black one , named Flash by my class, is who I think it one rooster.

The female is on the left and you can clearly see the eye liner she has.
 
Is the black one a Black Copper Marans? You won't be able to sex them until about 10-14 weeks.. The males will start developing pointed feathers on the next and saddle area. Unlike females who keep rounded feathers in both areas.

It was just the way that little black one acted. First to get up on the hot plate , first to want out of the brooder. The others all huddled next to her and some of them follow her around. She’s big as well
 
I have 3 Calico Princess chicks and all three pullets.. Dora the explorer was the lead 'do everything first' chick. Being inquisitive is no sign it's a male. Here are two of them investigating the kitchen.
