are these roosters?

I'm so glad they look like hens. I have a friend with multiple roosters, and her poor hens don't have any feathers on their backs. Mine all have feathers. The ones with combs are the bossiest, but that may be a teenager thing?
 
I think they are hens too. Went out to lock them in the run, and while I thought I was missing a chicken, shined my flashlight in the nesting box. I have about 4 chickens with combs, and the eggs are very small, but does this make me a grandma chicken?

Haha! Awesome. Yes, I think you might just be a grandma now! And don't worry, the eggs will get bigger. Much bigger.

Oh yeah, and one other thing I just remembered, rooster barred rocks have much smaller barring than hens. They're almost speckled looking.
