I am so new to chicken raising. I bought 6 assorted chicks of a breeder. 2 d’uccle bantams, 2 Polish and two Wyandotte to start off.
I am so lost on sexing but I know I have at least one rooster maybe two( fingers crossed)
Any help would be really appreciated!
Thanks so much

I can't help you with the Polish, but everyone else looks to be pullets to me. One d'Uccle is clearly way ahead of the other in the comb department. If they're truly 5 months-old, I wouldn't worry. Here's my verified d'Uccle pullet at a similar age (21 weeks):

Oh, and I just realized this is your first post! Welcome to the site! :welcome
 
I have a barbu d'Uccle rooster that looks EXACTLY like that, i thought he was a hen until he started crowing! Since he started crowing his comb grew!View attachment 4310455
d’Uccles are supposed to be easy to sex at a young age. Did he pop his comb early? Poppy’s stayed small until this 20-week point. She started laying about 3-4 weeks later.

Handsome boy, by the way! :love
 
Thanks everyone for the reply’s
Here is a couple more of the polish
