Pullets?

[philnj]

1st time chickens. Buff orphs and barred rocks about 6 weeks old give or take silkie x polish crested 5 weeks old. I know the silkie crosses more difficult to tell at this age. What about the others?

The Orpingtons look like females, I'm not good at Silkie sexing though.

The Barred Rocks look like pullets as well.

I think the pair down there look like females to me, depending on the combs and the color Near it also the tails, I'm not very sure about the first one for he doesn't have much red either at the comb or near with my guess if say females

Thank you for the comments. The Orphs and rocks were purchased as sexed pullets but hey no one is perfect. The silkie crosses were hatched by me. One seems bigger than the other two. Other than that they look very similar. All 3 out of a white crested cock and either a black or white silkie hen. All are doing great been outside for almost two weeks stopped nighttime heat after only a day or so. Go back into coop unassisted about 20 min before sundown. Started giving them free run time other day happily graze and return to coop on own.
