I think they are all pullets

 

[LeonieJane]

Can I ask what makes you think they are all pullets?

 

[armdchicken]

the white ones have small combs and the middle one i decided looks kinda boyish becaus of his larger comb and saddle feathers.

Satay is a roo the other 2 are hens.

 

[LeonieJane]

OK my husband just informs me now that he brought these as a Trio so I am assuming Satay is a male.
