@poultry_admin , same here (don't have the slightest idea), so since you started the ball rolling, I'll throw in my guess too.

3, 4, 5 are girls.

How does this go again? Early presence of wing feathers indicates females?
My guess is 2, 3, & 5 are female. :-D

Favorelles can be feather sexed, males are black and females are brown

Cool, now to be only able to tell which is black and which is brow, some look dilute to me

That was my problem!

The females are 2, 3 and 5 as the have two layers of feather on the wings

2, 3 and 5 are girls. 1, 4 boys.

I'm going with this as I have no idea and @GJHCornish sounds like someone who knows what they are talking about.
