Sexing my 6 week olds

[Birdcrazy]

Hi guys,

Would anybody be able to have a go at sexing my chicks? They are 6 weeks old - however the eggs came from a friend’s mixed flock so most are unknown crossbreeds.
They were quite difficult to take any good photos of, but I can get more if needed.

I’m thinking hen for the little Sussex

The little bantam-y baby is from my own flock, so hoping for hen!

This guy is a suspected roo

This one looks a little roo, also?

I’m really hoping hen for this little black one! She is super, super friendly

This one is from my flock - my rooster is a silkie/Cochin and the mum likely a Sussex.

The squad

Thanks guys, I appreciate any help.

It's hard when there are so many pictures without labels. Those with the bigger redder combs are boys, I see maybe 4 or 5 including the black one. The females have smaller combs like the silkie/cochin Sussex mix.

I can't go through each and every picture, since there are so many, but here's the gist:
Pic #2 - cockerel on right.
Pic #3 - two cockerels on left.
Pic #5 - cockerel.
Pic #7 - cockerel.
Pic #15 - cockerel.

It's likely everybody else is a pullet, though there's still time for things to change. Cute babies!

the white one and the red one closest to the big hen are pullets. Rest are boys.


Next time you post, do individual pics of each one's comb, in order.

Thanks everyone! They were super hard to photograph as they are so quick and not friendly unless I’m tempting them with food
Some of the browns are a bit hard for me to distinguish between too
There are 10 altogether but it looks like I’ve hit the boy jackpot again
