Ok, so I KNOW my Duccle's, Beau & Bella are a pair.

(You can see Esme' behind Bella)
They are 20 weeks old.

But I'm not positive on the rest of my chickens. They are 16 weeks old. These pics were taken today.

Here they are,

I can get better photo's if needed. So what do you guys think?

Your Cinnamon Queen is a pullet, not a rooster! Roos are mostly white in that hybrid. It's hard to make a sexing mistake with that hybrid since the males and females are different colors at hatch--it's why they're called sexlinks.

BRs are girls, too. Not sure, but the Austra looks like a pullet, too, in those pics. The hens have combs like that usually.
 
Everything else looks like a girl, the red ones with white tails are red sexlinks (general name for that type of cross), and so are 100% girl. Roo's would be mostly white.

The BR's look like girls too due to the darker baring.

I agree with all this.

Do you have a better pic of the BA, Twilight? I'd like to see if there's saddle feathers. I think it's a she from these pics.

I thought so, that red sex link roos were almost all white, but then I thought I saw sickle shaped neck feathers on Mr. FuFu, now Ms. FuFu,lol. Thanks for clearing that up ^.^
And I'm glad my BR and BA are pullets. \\^.^/

Thanks Speckeldhen.

Thanks, silkiechicken
