I bought straight run baby chicks in May. I was told they were RIR's and Silkies. They are roughly 7 months old. No eggs and no crowing as of yet. Can you help me determine the sex?

Silkie is a rooster, the RIR also looks to be a rooster, i think i see pointy saddle feathers, and the dark glossy patch on the wing, but closer picture from the side like in pic 2 would help, pic 3 is tilted away from the tail.

Both are definitely roosters.

Do you have 5 different birds posted in this picture? I thought that some of these pics were of the same bird.

There is 3 different birds here. The first looks like a hen. Pic 2 and 3 is the same bird and pic 4 and 5 are the same bird.
