Anyone care to guess what sex these chicks are?

They're 3 weeks old, so I know it's early days.

To me it looks like chick 1, 2 and 3 all have shorter crests, but chick 4's is more puffy..... What do you think?

Hi there, did you ever figure out what sexes they are? They sure are cute!

You really can't tell at that age. What you want to look for are the head feathers. Look closely. The males have thin, very pointed feathers on their crest. Females have wider feathers with rounded tips.
