I’m pretty sure I already know the answer, but is this Salmon Faverolles chick a roo? I’ve heard black feathering automatically tells you it is…if so, Laura needs a name change!

Mine was three weeks old in the above photo as well! Based on their coloring it looks to me like you have pullets :) The comb on mine was also already turning raspberry red. Here’s what he looks like now at 7 weeks old:

Oh yeah yours has a lot of black ! They say the black starts showing on their chest around 3-4 weeks ? I’m going they are females so far I think your right !
 
UPDATE: My 2 Faverolles are Females . I gave 2 to my in laws one we suspected to be a male and we’re hoping he was a male and sure enough he is and the other is the female . You can clearly see the difference.
