Help sexing peachicks!

I would love some input on if these babies are M or F … approx 8 weeks old. 2 angles of each baby. Thanks!

Yellow and green are hens and the other two are cock chicks,

Thank you!! If we ended up keeping 1 M and the females do we need to make sure they don’t hatch babies for inbreeding reasons (they are all either full or half siblings)? Or is it better to keep 2 males and have no females? Thanks!

You would be better off breeding father-daughter and mother-son than siblings.

Interesting ok. We don’t really care to breed - just want a little flock on the property but I don’t want to accidentally produce inbred babies either by keeping the wrong mix of sexes. Thanks!
