I have three Ameraucana, about 12 weeks old. No crowing yet, and I still don’t know their sexes. All we’re supposed to be BBS. I also don’t know what color the lightest bird is. Thoughts?

Thanks. I’ve been watching these birds from egg till now, and am really excited to discover which might be pullets, which might be cockerels.1 is probably a cockerel with that red comb.
2 and 3 are definitely cockerels.
4 is a pullet. Her color is blue splash.
Thank you. I wish I had some good pictures, but I really don’t and I’m away from them for a couple weeks. If there’s no crowing by the time I return I will definitely take some whole bird pictures to post.1 I'm not sure. The comb is kind of red, but still really small. Could you post a photo of the whole bird?

FemaleThe pictures of a single black bird is the one most in question. (Thanks to my bird sitter for some pics!)
The picture with two black birds- the back one is nearly certainly a rooster. The foreground one whose head isn’t visible is the same bird as the other two pictures. It has a red peacomb but not as big as the roo.
