How old are they? Third one has a really large comb.

I believe maybe 5 weeks

Well it’s still a bit too young, can’t see the head on the second picture. But the third one appears to have a pretty big comb. You will need to update in a couple of weeks!

I think I could tell better if they were on the ground, but I know it is hard to get good pictures.

My guess is the top one is a pullet, and the rest of them are roosters. Their legs are pretty thick, and have reddening combs - that we can see.

Mine treat a camera as if it were a hawk in disguise. it can be challenging to get good photos. They do make it hard. If you can get a close-up of the head showing the comb and wattles it can help. I'm looking for size and color. A second photo showing the legs, posture, and profile can help a lot. Heavy long legs are clues for a boy but that can be breed dependent. Upright posture can be a boy. By 5 weeks some just have a profile of either boy or girl.

My guess is a little different. The first one is kind of challenging, it looks like it may not be single combed which can make it harder. The legs look a little heavy but I can't be sure. I lean toward boy. Because of the legs I think the second may be a girl but better shots may help. The third and fourth ones look like boys, legs and comb.

I'd feel a lot more comfortable on the first two especially with better photos.

At that age really only need to see the combs, IMO.

This.

We need good pics of combs and wattles.

Third is a cockerel, I can't speak for the others without clear pictures though!
