I think #1 is a pullet. I see the pink comb - - - but at 10 weeks thats not way unusual.
The saddle feathers look round to me - - - that makes me say pullet.
 
Man Natalie, what'd you do to those chickens to get such stink eye out of 'em??!!

#1 looks rooish to me, but "he" doesn't seem to have any pointy feathers? Although, for 10 weeks that comb is quite pink, plus those tail feathers aren't looking good.... I'll go with roo
#2... Well, the look alone makes me want to say roo

But, I'm also seeing those 2 tail feathers sticking up. Is this one crossed with silkie or polish?
#3 & 4 look like girls from the picture but it's just a guess

Both the white EE's have rounded saddle feathers-but the hackle feathers look pointed-so Ive been confused for weeks!

haha They are mad they were kicked out of the warm big barn where they hid all the time! The white colored bird is from my silver laced W hen and my Silver laced polish roo-I thought it would make a cool chick so I mated them and that is what came out-what a sweet heart too.
