Specks looks like a silver laced wyandottee and is a cockerel
Skid is either a brown leghorn or welsummer and is a pullet
Bandit has some awful thick legs, but I am not going to throw out a guess yet for bandit or the others

 

[BeccaLeigh]

Oh no! Not specks!! Lol, that one is by far my favorite of the flock, and I was reeealy hoping it was a lady
I have to admit I've been a little suspicious about Bandit's legs myself... a little on the beefy side :/ ...
I'll give it a couple more weeks and post some more pics, maybe they'll throw out some more hints by then.

What makes you say Specks is a cockerel? I am NOT arguing, I am trying to get good at this and so far I am only good at specific breeds. I don't see the tail feathers curling at all -although they are still young-and the comb doesn't seem big, so what am I looking for?

you have to know a little about slw to be able to tell. It is based off his coloring. And you should not go off tails when it comes to gender and they are still young, assome hens will get arch in their tail,

I would wait untill they crow, I was convinced one of my chickens was a male. But turned out to be female
