Yet another Roo or Hen Question

Thanks, I think the initial pictures were not clear enough, I also think the colour looked darker on the orginal pictures than they really are, I think they're quite light, but I have nothing to compare them too as they're certainly all the same colour.

Those tail feathers in this photo you posted made me change my mind. They do look like roosters now. Sorry. The angle in the first photos had me thinking pullet, but I have never seen a hen with long feathers that droop downward.

All of them are definitely roosters.

Thanks everyone for your input, confirming what I though in the first place. So sad about this, I love my barred Rocks, they're such characters, but we're not alllowed to keep cockerels, so they'll have to go. Thats now, 7 out of my 10 chicks who have turned out to be Roos! On the plus side, it does mean I get to go out this weekend and buy more chickens.

Agree they're all roosters. The seller should be able to see that easily from the new pics.
