So we bought these two "pullets" from the local chicken store. Hoping that they are both girls. Also are they Barred Rocks? 

Thanks for your help

Yes, they look to be hatchery stock BR.  I'd also feel confident on them being pullets, but sometimes the cockerels shows himself just a wee bit late.  If you see a comb go red, and little red wattles appear in the next two weeks, then THAT would be a sure sign of a cockerel.  So far, so good.

Thank you so much! I will pay close attention the next two weeks. We are sure hoping for some girls so that we can start getting eggs this fall!
