I’ve got 2 babies that hatched a little over 2 weeks ago. My initial assessment of sex at day 1 was both are pullets. I need some feedback. I know it’s early to tell. They are both langshan australorp cross chicks. Any guesses would be greatly appreciated. The one with the lighter beak is called White Tip. It’s got 2 white feathers on both wings. The other was named by my son. It’s Blackie. He’s 6.

Clearer pictures would help, but I'm almost certain the lighter one is a boy. The other could be too, but it's still very early to tell.
 
I’m hoping that white tip is a girl with a big comb. His momma had a big comb as well early on. Was sure she was a he until she was 3 months old. She’s my top hen. I’ll keep posting picks as they get bigger & easier to sex. Thanks for the help!
