I have two 8 ish week old chicks, earlier indications were female but now I am having doubts. The tail feathers are looking more squared that the other two of the same breeds. MWhat do you think? Two photos of each bird are (hopefully) attached.

They all look like pullets! When looking at feathers for sexing, you want to look at the saddle feathers, not the tail feathers. The saddle feathers are at the base of the tail. Male saddle feathers are long and pointy, and female saddle feathers are short and rounded.
