The bigger with a straight comb is 5 weeks the smaller with straight comb 4 weeks. The one with a pea comb is 4 weeks too. I removed the 2 with the straight comb and the brooder seems more peaceful. Does any one have any idea? Thank you!

Go with instinct. From my own POV, behaviour is usually an indicator from hatch. The boys are bolder so we figure it out week 1. You can, of course, occasionally get it wrong but generally it’s very reliable.
 
I’m sorry…I just can’t with that first picture :lau :gigThe cat just staring at it! The chicken is thinking “oh shoot” and that cat is practically licking its lips!
But I do need to stop and make myself useful:smack
The first one looks like a cockerel. Everyone else looks to be a pullet I think

Yeah moonstone is totally harmless I caught her a mouse once and it beat her up. Removed all the hair off her lip. She is a useless house cat 🤣 the picture made me laugh too her eyes are huge! FYI I still don't trust her ever unattended! Cats are cats
 
They are so much bigger! Thinking they are all males. The other 5 from the same lady have tiny combs, no wattles, They also are still dull instead of red. These three (biggest is a week older from same eggs) have lots more red. Any input is so appreciated!
