Ameraucana or EE, and gender??

Thought I'd post an update.
I'm certain now that I have a boy named Sue.
The search is on now to find him a new good home. Where I live I can have roosters, so I have time - don't have to freak out about violating codes. I'm off today to put up a flyer at the feed store.
Wish I could keep him, looks like this is going to be a gorgeous bird.

Irene is looking more and more like a hen every day so good news there.

I purchased 6 eggs in July, five of them hatched. I have these two Ameraucanas and 3 Mille Fleur Leghorns. Seems I have been extraordinarily lucky (from reading forums here) we only have one rooster out of the 5 chicks.

 
Hi,
I tried to get all the recommended pictures but these two would NOT stand still.
I was told I had Ameraucana eggs but reading these forums it seems like a lot of people get EEs that way.
Curious what you all think.
Also curious about gender. Is it too early to tell? They are 8 weeks old.

This is Irene

This is Susan


All that red on her head makes me nervous, hoping this isn't A Boy Named Sue
I see yellow showing through the dark wash on those feet, that means they are Easter Eggers. Ameraucana have white skin.
