SLW chicks male or female

[Kport5]

I have 3 SLW chickens that I am having trouble identifying as male or female. They are about 13-14 weeks old. Any help appreciate!

Individual picture of each and a group of them.

All pullets!

I would guess three boys. Watching thread…

I agree with Rose the Legbar. Those are all definitely pullets.

By this age they would have larger combs and male feathering if they were boys.

I was thinking their combs already looked develped for their age - I stand corrected. Thanks @Saveria and @JedJackson

Beautiful birds!

Yeah, rose combs can be really tricky, especially around 6 weeks.

For some reason, this is especially true with laced Wyandottes. I have no idea why, but young pullets of these varieties can sometimes get big, red combs and even wattles at an early age. Generally cockerels have less even coloring and sometimes get solid colored shoulder patches early. It is what it is. No rule is absolute when determining gender of young chickens. There will always be some deviation from the norms.

@Kport5 I was wondering how much their combs and wattles grew. Your birds are so pretty!
