Hi everyone, this is my first time raising chicks and I’m a very curious person. I’ve been trying so hard to figure out the gender of my chicks as I am hoping for all pullets. I have 2 RIRS, 2 ISA browns, 2 Black Austrolorps and a Golden Sebright. I’ve been doing a lot of research and as far as I can tell, nothing about my chicks are screaming rooster. None of them are bigger than the others (besides my bantam being smaller) and none of them have bigger legs or huge combs. They are 3 1/2 weeks old which I know is still early but I’m paranoid as one of my Black Austrolorps has a little pink under its beak and I can’t tell if it’s wattles or just it’s skin/beak. Pls help if you can.

And here are the rest of my chicks just to show them off. Thank you so much with any help you can give!
 
I know it’s only been a day but I believe one of my RIRs has began to get wattles, along with my Black Austrolorp. I guess my question is, can pullets get wattles at 3 1/2 weeks too? Or is that 100% certain a sign of a cockerel.
