What sex are these bantam chicks? Pekins, Ancona and Langshans

[StanleyChooks]

We have 5 bantam chicks and are fearing a disproportionate number are male. There are 2 Pekins, approx 5 weeks old; an Ancona approx 7-8 weeks; and 2 Langshans also 7-8 weeks.

I was hoping for your opinion on their sex. I hope I have provided enough details in the photos that follow...

Many Thanks
Lucy

I think your white pekin is a pullet. Your second pekin looks like a silkie to me

I would say its a pullet, but they are hard to sex. All the rest look like cockerals. Good luck!

Thanks.... crossing our fingers that at least the pekins & possible silkie are pullets! Guess time will tell.

Ah yes - the brown one must be a Silkie. *She* was walking around outside today and I noticed she has five toes.

I say both Pekins are hens. Still not sure about pekin #1 but.... and the other 3 are roos

Those two White Cochin pullets are adorable!

The Partridge Silkie, who knows?

The two Black Langshans and the Ancona are all roosters.
