Serama Chick Care, Am I Doing It Right?

After finally getting a 5 pence piece near them without them trying to eat it:

Did they all turn out to be roosters (I know, I replied kind of late; sorry )

Jeremy is definitely a boy, 100% XD
Snowbell looks to be a very flashy hen, as she lacks the saddle feathers Jeremy has despite being the same age.
And Dolly is probably a hen too, but she is a week younger than the other two so it is hard to really tell.

Jeremy also tidbits when he gets tasty treats, which neither Dolly or Snowbell do.

That’s a cockerel. Serama pullets don’t get in much comb at all until they’re older.

Round neck feathers = hen

Pointy neck feathers = roo

The lack of pointed feathers at that age really doesn’t say anything. If there’s no pointed feathers at 12 weeks, then that could point to pullet.

Ah! Well, if I get two boys I will love them regardless. ^^ Dolly is defo a hen then.

I will have one boi as a house pet, most likely Snowbell, and the other hen and rooster in the coop and run we are gonna build.

It's cruel to keep a chicken by it's self. You will need to get Snowbell a friend if you want to keep him inside (though it's better for him to live outside, where he can forage and live a natural chicken life, and have him take trips inside).
