Hello there and welcome to BYC!

It is hard to tell their gender or age, but from looking down on them, they look like pullets.

How old are they and can you get pics up close of the faces and more bodies not thru a fence? Closer pics will help to determine gender.

To add more than one pic to a post, when you are picking out the pics from your pc, hold down your Ctrl button so each pic highlights and when you post them here, they will all load up on the same post. :-)

Great to have you aboard and welcome to our flock!

Unless they've been "home spun" or bred again, these birds are sex links, which means the pullets are reddish brown with light rear feathering while the cockerels are hatched out white/cream. That is the whole point of sex links.

The difference is obvious.

 
Ill put up some more pics. I appreciate everyone's input. Also I forgot to list the age in my post. I purchased them in mid march and its midlate June now, so approx. 3 months.

and heres the bantam that im pretty sure is a hen.
 
Did you purchase them directly from the hatchery/retail store or did they come from someone's home flock? As was explained above, true ISA Browns are sex-lined birds so that would mean your birds are all pullets due to the color patterning they are displaying.
