    what gender are these 2 brahma chickens?

    They should be around 5 months old now. Hope someone can see what gender they are as i´m not supposed to have roosters. The person i bought them from wants to trade them but then i need to know for sure and as fast as possible. I think the first one is a cockerel as he has those colored feathers...

No diarrhea, no blood in droppings, no visible worms. I give her fermented food, canned tuna and kefir. Anything...
