Sexing BLRW's... How long until I can tell?PICS :)

[19hhbelgian]

I have 4 BLRW chicks, and was wondering when I will be able to tell the difference between girl/boy. I know the roo's feather differently than the hens color pattern wise, but right now they all look the same

Here's a pic of my babies (I'm not expecting any one to be able to tell me pullet/cockerel yet, just wanted to post a pic of them for you

)

As chicks feather out, the boys seem to get a tail after the girls and when they do feather out, the boys have pointy ends of their feathers, especially on the outside of the thighs and shoulders. The girls have rounded ends of their feathers in those same places. You can't really tell from a small bump where the spur would be cause some girls end up w/those, too

I can usually tell after the first week, by the look of the comb, about 95%. On most Wyandotte roosters, their combs will be noticeable and not so on the pullets.

I got a few blr chicks what do you all think??

2 pullets. I could not tell by the angle, does the first one have a straight comb?

I noticed that my males got a lot more blue in them then the girls.
