Assuming they are the same age, you have one pullet. The decorative saddle and hackles are clearly visible on the three cockerels so if you just got them from someone who said they were female, they were dishonest.

They are the same age. The good news is she said if one turns out to be a roo, she would swap em out. It was a wild game of catch and we assumed they were all pullets and didn't really look at em till I got home.
 
It's MUCH EASIER if you retrieve them after dark. Chickens cannot see well in low light conditions so a flashlight and taking them from the roost is less stressful for all. You just need to look at the lower back for those long, pointy feathers to know if they are male.
