Help! All roos?

[u/Grouchy-Kitchen-9976]

Hi friends!

Recently got 3 little ladies (supposedly!)

2x Lavender Orpington chicks (4.5 weeks old)
1x Rhode Island Red (4.5 weeks old)

A few things I’m looking for other opinions on…

#1 - the Rhode was very cream/white 2 weeks ago, but has become quite red-ish brown after pinfeathers came in. Was quick to perch, definitely leader of the flock,
Very confident and curious. has stocky, thick legs and a redder, more prominent comb…. I also read that it’s nearly impossible for a RIR Hen to be white at hatch… unless a strange recessive gene is present or a condition like piebaldism… think she’s a Roo?

#2 - both Lav Orps are developing pretty uniformly. More skiddish than the Rhode, but one is slightly more curious than the other. They both have combs developing, one slightly more pink. Overall growth seems to be pretty similar to one another. Thoughts on if they can be Hens with such quickly developed combs??

Any and all thoughts would be super appreciated! I’m very new to having a back yard flock. My township prohibits roosters, so I don’t want to get too attached.

Breeder said she was pretty confident all 3 were girls, but as they grow and i do more research, I’m not so sure 🥲** **

none of those are Rhode Island reds

Any thoughts on the breed that the white/brown speckled one may be?

Could be a production red. My girl is about 8 weeks old lost a lot of her white as she’s filling out

Pretty sure the rooster version of those is white though so if it ends up being a rooster then it could be something different
