Are these buff orpingtons?

My chicks are in the brooder no heat lamp tonight, but it was 80 degrees for us today, They actually needed help cooling down. We love letting the chicks outside, they were ok for a few hours outside a few weeks ago at about 60. If that helps you decide.
 
They’ve been out his past week- yesterday and the day before for pretty much the whole day. They have a coop but I’ve just been letting them free range- they go in the coop for food and water. I tried to put them up in the hen house but their protesting chatter and peeps pulled at my heartstrings. They came in for the night- this time no heat lamp. I know I should lock them up
in the hen house for a few days but honestly that won’t float here... Going to do the darkness thing without the heat lamp and see how that goes the next few nights- then attempt closing them up overnight in their hen house.
 
The one in the second photo with his head up looks like a boy to me....I can't see the other one.
They're buff Orpingtons.
Do you have side photos?
 
Here is a more recent photo of the bigger one are we still leaning to pullet?
