I have four young birds that I keep second guessing myself. I know one is a rooster. I think the two americauna/wheaton mix are hens. I am not sure on the pure americauna. It is smaller than roo but I keep second guessing myself on it.

The bird in pic 1 has just now started to get red comb, wattles. They are 19-20 weeks old

Any idea what color eggs I will get?

The bird on the right in the third picture looks like it could be a cockerel, but I'd need some more pictures to be sure. The rest look like pullets to me.

No telling what color eggs they will lay, but having pea combs increases the odds of laying blue or bluish green eggs.
 
I was really hoping the red comb and wattle in pic 1 were just from it being close to laying.

It is smaller like a hen but I know that doesn’t necessarily mean it is. The one obvious rooster is much bigger than the other three.

Still hard to tell, if you get some close-ups of the feathers it would help, but I get a feeling the 2 in the middle of the last picture you posted are cockerels.
