What gender are these ?

[MysteryChicken]

Barred is the type of coloring right ? I'm only a year into owning chickens so still learning. I was so exited some of these were black. I definitely want black mixed hens .

Yes, barring is the coloration of the father, & offspring.

I'm going to go against the crowd and say the one with the yellow shanks is a pullet. This is assuming that one of the parents had yellow shanks and the other had slate or light shanks. It's possible for a pullet to also have light colored shanks from that pairing, but no boys should have yellow. Because of that, I'm also going to guess that the one that is the same color and pattern as the one with yellow shanks is also a pullet. Take that with a grain of salt though, as I'm no expert on the subject.

Barring is the white stripes/bars on their feathers. It’s seen on barred rocks, bielefelders, crele old English game bantams, and cream legbars, to give a few examples. I agree with @MysteryChicken that the father is likely a buff Orpington cross.

I'm not sure, not all of them look like boys to me.

Are you talking about dermal sex linking? Though I don’t know much about it, I know it wouldn’t work in this situation.

I don't see Hackle feathers or saddle feathers on All of them. I'm probably wrong though.

Oh, I just saw the picture of them all together. In that case my guess is changed to 4 girls, 4 boys based on pattern and that one of that pattern had yellow shanks.

Edited to make myself clear with a picture:

They're not old enough to saddle yet.
