I am just seeing rounded feathers at the moment. With the reddening of the comb I can understand why you think it is looking a bit "rooish". I'd give it a couple more weeks and watch the hackle and saddle feathers closely to see if they are coming in more pointy instead of rounded. For now I am saying pullet. Cute chicken!
 
The first two look like EE pullets to me also.
pride is supposed to be an americana and bokugo is supposed to be a golden laced wyandotte but really glad to hear that they are believed to be pullets (first pic is pride ) second is bokugo

Pride and Bokugo are pullets based on round tail feathers. (Hope that stays correct!)

Peep the Red Star sexlink is a cockerel.

Keep an eye on the barred rocks --- I think one is a cockerel and one is a pullet.

I can't see Kitty the Australorp well enough to determine.

Easter Eggers and Americanas are the same thing. Does Bokugo have yellow legs or are they the same color as Pride’s legs?
