Can somebody help me with sexing these two brahma chicks? Up until today I had been sure that the light brahma was a cockerel and the lemon pyle was a hen. Now I think I may hay them the wrong way around. They are 7 weeks old.

I would say pullets

This is unrelated but how does the lemon one act ?
She looks a little off to me.
 
I think the lemon pyle is a male, judging by the deep coloring coming in at the shoulder area. But it really isn't developed enough to be certain. This chick looks underdeveloped for 7 weeks, so keep an eye out for health problems, and if you find them, post in the medical/emergencies forum.

Honestly, I think it is a little too early to be certain with the white and gray one as well. Brahmas can be slow to develop.
