I am so bad at this... 1,3,6 are cockerels thats my best guess. Can you see who has the extra streamer feathers on the crests yet? who are the bigger ones? often comparing them in size helps.

eta 1 and 3 for sure, possibly #2 and I change my mind about #6 I now think it is a she lol can you get side shots of some that only have head on pics?

Nemo is Male
Jojo is Female (?)
Xen is male
Roxzan is Female
Ding is Male
Dan is female

Jojo I am not sure of... So keep an eye on him/her

#6 looks more like a female. only because of how small it is. Although I have had some pretty looking boys at that age

Dan is a girl... You will have to rename her Danielle

just look at the face... The crest is different. Plus I can see wattles on it

But pictures can only say so many things.
