any guesses on gender?

I agree that the black one is a Black Sex Link cockerel. I'm not certain about the light bird. I would suggest re-posting its pic in 3-4 weeks.

I agree.

That would make me happy to have a pullet. Sucks that I have another male I have two already .

My coop consists of my roo, a plymouth barred rock, a buff orphington and my red sex link, whom just passed away

One looks like a barred rock to me but the other one im not sure. Neither one looks like a rooster if you were wondering about that too.

The barred one might not look like a rooster yet, but since the mother was barred and the father was not, it's not possible to be a female.

Since the rooster isn't a barred Rock, the chick simply can't be one. In order to be any pure breed animal, both parents must be the same breed.

They're young for rooster characteristics, but our knowledge of sex-linked genetics and how the barring gene is inherited allows us to tell the little barred chick is a rooster.

Im sorry, I must not have seen the post about what breed the rooster was I figured it was a barred rock because the chick looked so close to one.
