Thing One and Thing Two - Is Either a Roo?

Hey all, 

  We were given a pair of 6 week old Barred Rocks from a friend that had no room at the inn. We where told that they were both hens. They are now 15-17 weeks old. Can we tell if they are really hens? I suspect they both are.

 

All the hens I have are EEs so I'm not real sure what a pullet Barred Rock looks like.

 

Here's the pair together (I know, not great pictures)
