I have eight all together, these two look like roos to me, but I'm just a newbie at this. Please let me know what you think. Also what breed are they? I was told the blk and white was a BR, but the brown and blk was unknown. Thanks for your help.
 
Yes they all look like roosters. There very pretty though. And the black and white is a Barred rock and the other might be a Black Sex link I don't know for sure though.

Thanks. Interesting, could it be a black marans? I know the guy who sold them to me had some.

I have a barred rock that turned out to be a roo. He is much lighter in color. However, his comb is about as big as yours. The coloring says pullet....my guy has been crowing for about two weeks now. Is your making an ill faded attempt at crowing yet. If not, there is still a chance he's a she!!!!

Yes it is dark in color and also has dark grey legs. your rooster has yellow legs. I still have hope it is a hen. no noises yet. your rooster is quite handsome.
 
Both roosters, probably both mixed. The barred bird is a not a full barred rock but had one barred parent. That's why he's darker colored and has the dark legs, but there is no doubt that is a rooster. The black and red one may have marans but doesn't really look like it, he just looks like a mixed breed roo.
