Sexing a Bresse cross

[Corticeiro]

Hi everyone!

- All the white chicks (except the one with the naked neck) are Bresse (roo) x Bluebell (hen) at 4 weeks.
- The black chick with the white barring (I hope is the right term) around the neck is Black Australorp (roo) x Bresse (hen) at 4 weeks.

Can you please give me your opinion on boys vs girls?

Thanking you in advance,
DC.

Black and naked neck are cockerels, others pullets

Agree, I see 2 of each.

Thank you Rhodebar Lover and LadiesandJane!

Just noticed that I missed the picture of another white chick... But judging by the comb redness (or lack of) I think I have another Bresse x Bluebell pullet

UPDATE:
The naked neck escaped from the 26'x13' run (even with bird net coverage) and did a Houdini on us... Have no idea if our dogs took care of him and had the whole thing (no feathers, blood, legs or beak to be found) or any other predator (never seen birds of prey over our skies and it is highly unlikely for terrestrial predators with a GSD mix and a Transmontano mastiff patrolling the premises).
