I would love some help to identify a couple things.
I purchased my two chooks three weeks ago, the person who hatched was not the breeder. She said she was 90% sure they were both female but I'd love everyone else's opinions. Also I'm fairy sure my faverolles is a salmon but Im not sure, and Im also not sure of the maran's colour.

Butter is somewhere between 7 and 8 weeks old I think (I was not given an exact age for her, I guessed based on how she looked when I got her). I am also hoping she is a she.

Coriander is 6 weeks old based on the lady I got her from's information. The person she got the eggs from had multiple coops of wheaten marans hens with different marans roosters, at least one of which was a black copper. There is a slight possibility of a non marans rooster being the father though.

This was them three weeks ago when I got them.

So yeah, what do you guys think? Hens, roosters, colour?
I really hope they are hens, as Im too far into town to keep roosters and Im already very attached to them.
 
Its what she was sold to me as. Any idea what she could be then? Or would it be easier to tell when she's bigger?

It'll be easier to tell what kind of crossbred she is when she is older. I have my doubts the Favorelle is pure as well. Its pattern is way off for Salmon. They both do look to be pullets though.
