I hope someone can guide me here as I have to rehome the roos, however I can't seem to identify them for sure!

I think these 3 babies are girls but???

Dad is a stunning EE roo, moms are sexlinks (some red, some black, not sure whose chicks these are).

Since EE's have small combs and wattles and sexlinks do not, how can you look at babies and figure out which gene they inherited?

Pics taken at almost 5 weeks of age.

Thank you!

Since the mom is a sexlink and the hens have large combs, could this be a factor? Everything else about this one says girl... specially the color...
