5-6 week old Lavender-male or female?

[Lindseypunch]

I’m a fairly new chicken mother. My mom got me hooked. The black chick in the pictures came from Tractor Supply when I noticed all the other chicks pecking all the meat off of it’s toes. When it’s foot healed up I got the chick a lavender friend, and they have been smitten with each other since day one. I’m wondering the sex of both of them. I’m thinking the black chick is female but I’m not certain. Lavender is about 5-6 weeks old and the black is 6-7 weeks. Also If you know the breed of either I would be happy to know what they are. The breeder just said “lavender” so that’s all I know about that one. I’m clueless about the black chick’s breed. I’m wanting to name them but I’m having trouble without knowing the gender. I know they’re young and it may be hard to tell, but any advice is greatly appreciated! Regardless of their gender they will always have a safe home with me to live out their days.

It's probably two early to tell for sure. The Lavender is looking like a roo though. The black one maybe a pullet, but again a little early. Maybe post updated pics in a couple weeks.

agreed.
and lavender what? lavender is a color, not a breed.

Dark with some pink spots at the tips of the toes. I’ve included a pic from the day I brought it home. These are the best feet/leg shots I have til I get home later
