Tailless breeds?

Maybe I'm wrong - maybe they aren't rumpless at all but two of them have shorter tails - the 2nd and 4th (in the front) pictured ones.

They have tailbones, just like cochins do. This is a rumpless bird

ahhh ok. Good to know, I guess I just have two with longer tails - roosters?

That is a common myth. Cockerel tails tend to grow in slower than pullets, so longer tails do not mean that your birds are cockerels.
But tails aren't the best way of telling the gender at this age. Right now your best bet would probably be watching the combs.
All of your pictured brahmas look like pullets to me.

Thanks! That's what someone else said too
Maybe it's the tailless ones that are cockerels. (Can you tell I actually don't want all of these brahmas? Lol)
