These are 12 day old mille fleur bantom.
In the second picture they are only 7 days old.
I know they're too young to be sure and it's very difficult to tell but for anyone who's good at spotting clues I'm so eager to know.
My guess is dark one is a roo and yellow one a hen based on posture and feathering but I am completely new to this. The dark one is always standing tall and observing everything, looking in my eyes and at my face a lot. The yellow when likes to to have a hand wrapped around it for a cuddle and will just fall asleep in my hand a lot. The dark one likes a little fussing.

you might be right about coloring and all that or how they behave but chickens all have different behaviors, for example, my drake duck and 1 of my hens don't like being help and being by me lol. Good luck though!

Thanks for the comment.
 
Think the bright colored one on the left might be a rooster but impossible to know for sure. My guess is based on the tail feathers being more rounded. Roosters will generally have sharp saddle feathers and thicker legs than a hen but their tail feathers will be more rounded. Roosters are also often lighter colored than their female counterparts.
