Hello all, I hatched 5 bantam chicks, they are about 2-3 months old I think. Two are definitely makes and one is definitely a female. As for the others I'm kinda stumped. They are silkie and porcelain d'Uccle mixes. I usually can tell the genders for myself, but these two are making it hard for me. Does anybody have any ideas?

This one has a tiny bit of shiny feathers on its neck but none on its tail where as my other cocks do. I'm kinda leaning towards cock but I'm not positive.

Then this one has no shiny feathers. I'm leaning towards pullet, but I'm not sure yet.

Here's a picture of the other cocks, you can see a major difference, one has the same mom, but that's it.

I'd appreciate any help, thanks. :)
 
Thank you. :) what about the shiny feathers on the neck? In those pictures they are kind of hard to see.
 
Thanks so much for both of your opinions! :) I was starting to think I had 2 girls and 3 boys, I'm glad i asked! :)
