Just picked these five ladies up. Four weeks. If they aren't all ladies, they must be all boys. They are all mostly black with yellow in their comb area. Whaddya think?

Those look more like hens than my 3 week olds that have reddish combs and wattles. First picture I think are all males, second is my only hope for a hen

I sure hope so. They are a bit freaked out but when they got out on a patch of grass today they were quite happy. First chooks ever!
