Can anyone please tell me I have at least one hen out of these two ???1000

I believe the one in front might be a hen and the one behind might be a roo ?

Both are calm and sweet .

They both look like pullets at this point. How old are they?

Well, the kittens aren't so cute anymore and the easter egger cockerels are in the freezer. Plus, I think offering them as "prizes" scared folks off! So, I'm still posting quotes, if you know it let me know. I'm very enamored of this new one, it may hang around for a while!

Age would help, but it looks like the first one (with wattles showing) is a cockerel, and the second one is a pullet.

 

Edit: Oops, saw that you posted age--at 5 weeks, I think those wattles showing says cockerel.

I would vote that you are right, and have a male and female.  BTW, your cockerel has some very manly cleavage :P

I'd say you have a pair, 1 male 1 female.
