They are still to young to tell

5 week old one looks to be Female. 4 Week old one looks to be male.

Not positive but that's what it looks like. The Males have more black on them than the females do.

I agree, still a bit young to be sure.. need to have feathers on the back and more on neck to grow out to see what sort of markings they have. Sorry.. maybe suggest they take several blackshoulders in hopes one or more will turn out to be a male?

yes little young to tell, if could see in person maybe.

If I was to guess 4 week old male 5 week old female.

Note the feathers coming in were the wing join the back. Those on the 4 week old look like they are dark feathers coming in. the 5 week those feathers look more cream color coming in.

Now in about 4 more weeks you will be able to tell

I would not sell them sexed yet.
