Sight Sexing Barred Plymouth Rock Chicks at Hatch

Better pictures. Here are my 2 (almost 3) week olds. I have better pictures of them. Guesses for girl or boys?
One seems to have a slower growth than the other two.

Please help me ID my 2.5 old week barred. Her wing coloring looks 50/50, but the legs are awfully pink. Also this was a local farm, not a hatchery chick. Thank you!

We’ve been loving the responsibility of raising chicks. The dogs are used to them in their container now. We will be getting our coop this weekend. Also, watching their personalities come out has been my favorite thing to see.

Picture 1: Red Hennington is the sweet, calm one. They said she was a Rhode Island Red, but the feathers seem different

Picture 2: Poké is my baby and is super interested in everything and everyone. I’m really hoping it’s a girl.

Picture 3: pretty positive Brooke Shields is a dude… 🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

Picture 4: Poké again wanting a close up.

Not pictured is Natasha Romhenoff. Pretty sure Natasha’s a guy too… also not sure they are the breed we thought, but that’s what we get when we buy from a feed store.
 
I've read the majority of this thread and I'm becoming convinced that one of my pullets is a cockerel, which would be great.

I have 3 barred rock pullets from Tractor Supply, one week old, and only this one has barring. I'm 75% sure he's a cockerel, but I'd appreciate more experienced eyes and opinions.

And here's what the other two look like:

The other two are still mostly black
 
Thoughts on these three? 3days old.

These are two that were between a week or two old in this pic who are now lovely hens. Just to get your hopes up. They both had head spots and barring on their feathers.
