What gender are these Sapphire Gems

[Lazarushian]

Please read this first! Chicks are in dog kennel temporarily while their pen is being cleaned. I am also having a hard time posting on this website. I apologise.

I bought these chicks at Tractor Supply about a month ago. Am wondering if two of them are cockerels?
The 4th is a Barred Rock and the 5th is a mystery bird.

Looks like three roosters and two hens. Could be wrong though.

Pics 1, 2, and 3 look like roos. Especially the first two pics. That's one massive masculine head!

1 picture is a Pullet, 2 picture is the same, And 3 picture is a cockerel.

Will try to post photo of the third chick. It looks like chick in photo 1

Sapphire gems are sexlinked (barred males/solid females) hybrids. There is about a 99.99999999% chance that all three of them are female.

EDT: Also, after studying the photos very closely for several minutes, I see no Barred Rocks. Can you post pictures of the two non-Sapphire gems in natural light?

As I’m sure you’ve figured out by now but you have all sapphire gem pullets. They are sexlinked and some mature faster than others. Just posting this for others that’s might come across this thread.
