tips for sexing wyandotte chicks

We had an easy Wyandotte to sex once, he crowed at 8 weeks. Otherwise they tend to be obvious at 10 weeks with larger comb and wattle and a more upright stance. By 12 weeks they were all sexed reliably and separated off.
 
Thanks,
I noticed that two of my chicks had eyeliner and that the ther two didnt, and are lighter in colour. The lighter ones were more curious and outgoing, so i thought they were the boys, but i wasnt sure.
 
Thanks katpekin, the ones with eyeliner were girls. I blogged on the subject here http://enisrarebreedchickens.wura.co.uk/sexing-partridge-wyandotte-chicks/
