Hey everyone. About 9 weeks ago I got what I thought were 6 new [baby] hens. But these two have me worried. I think they are both Araucanas so they already have much different faces than my other hens. Not sure if it’s a breed thing or a sex thing. So the ultimate question.. roos or hens?

The white one is definitely a roo. He started crowing 3 days ago. I separated him from the rest since he also started getting aggressive with one of the hens. Plan to start asking around to see if anyone needs a roo… but I think his days may be numbered 😢
Still holding my breath on the brown one. S/he’s behaving more like a hen though so I’m confused (and a little hopeful).
