I was thinking that same thing, looks like 2 & 1

To me, purple screams cockerel but the others are hard to tell. I find head on shots of pea combs easier to judge. I found a pic of our 5-6 week old blue Ameraucana, which were all pullets. Also a pic of an approx 6 week old black Ameraucana cockerel. Our blue Ameraucana are also very stand-offish with people, even as hens.

I could take a photo of each comb. Except purple. Because that one is wild lol.
First two are sage and second two are blue.

I think Ameraucanas can be hard, more difficult than EEs. If they were my birds, I’d wait a bit. I thought that one of my pullets could maybe be a cockerel at that age, but she’s not,.. You might need to wait for cockerel feathering or the famous “crow or egg”!

I own ameraucanas too and I agree with @Mixed flock enthusiast, you should wait.

For sure. Sage and blue I’m hoping are both pullets. My EE chicks I was certain one was a rooster and it ended up being my hen lol.
I’ll give it time but I’m really hoping to keep two of them. At ten weeks I was thinking the comb would be way larger and bright red if they were roosters. I’m going to hold out and keep hoping. Thanks for your input!
