Hi, mine turned out to be just 2 pullets, the mostly black with white underneath and the black crested one (on the photo with all the chicks, its the far right next to the brahma)the other 3 are all boys! managed to home 2 of them and kept the mostly white one. I got my eggs from a breeder in surrey (I'm in the UK) I assume you are in USA? I'm no expert! I had mine feather DNA tested as I was tired of guessing! Yours could be either at this stage but the comb and wattles look quite red and large for a pullet but as I said I'm no expert! but as my black and white one has grown her comb and wattles are fairly large for a girl, but the crested one hardly has a comb at all, it is so difficult to sex these birds I think as they are all so different, I'll take some photos and post them later today if that helps!

Thanks for the update! Wow, that's a lot of boys! I would love to see pictures as I know they feather out so very differently. Yes, I am in the USA. I am certain without a doubt that mine is a boy... the one above... every day the saddle and hackle feathers are more and more clear. And, this morning he was crowing obnoxiously. I have a 1 year 6 month SFH hen so it is tempting to keep him, but not sure I want another rooster.
