Yes 1 and 2 are cockerels. The rest look like pullets but the wyandotte not sure about that one.

I didn't realise I had two threads running against this group of chicks... Well, in case anyone wants an update, I will post here too

11 weeks old, they are little chickens now, no more fluff to be seen We still thinking the only Roos are 1 and 2? They are the only ones with pointy saddle feathers showing. The second rooster is very shiny.

Sorry to be the devil's advocate over here or whatever the saying is but 1 + 2 are definitely boys and the rest look like girls, but i'd watch 7. Some odd, patchy coloration going on there. @Muser could you get some more photos of 7?

 

[Muser]

I'm 100% sure 1 and 2 are boys, they have shiny saddle and hackle feathers and also the sickle feather is popping up too, plus they play fight all the time. It's the others I get confused about I post them all for comparison.

I will try and get more of 7 (the black with white splotches) but it's so skittish, hard to get pics!

Jee whizz, it doesn't stop for a minute lol! Trying to get clear non fuzzy pictures is a nightmare of number 7

Here's the best ones I could get @TheOddOneOut :
