8 week old EE gender help!

[Erin125]

Hey all! I have two EE that are about 8-9 weeks old. Of course I was told they were both female but one of the two displays very roo like behavior. It’s slightly larger, comb slightly bigger and redder, and tends to stand straight up a lot. I really can’t have another rooster and am hoping they are both ladies. Also they are the only two in their little flock right now until they are introduced to the big chicken flock. I’m unsure if one of the females is just displaying dominant behavior.
