These chicks are about 4-5 months. They're an easter egger/ amercauna mix. We were pretty sure they were all female, except recently 3 are getting a comb and 1 isn't... I know all chickens get combs but I'm questioning why one isn't ? Is this a sign of a female?

Yes, please close up of the heads in profile and side view of the body so that any saddle feathers can be evaluated. Clear photos in good lighting is best for accurate assessment.
Also helpful if you note each bird in the photos as they all seem to be quite similar in appearance. :)
 
They are constantly moving and still skittish of people (we only got them about 2 weeks ago). I hope these photos help.
