i have a silver laced wyandote that has darker red comb and waddle, but I have nothing to compare to so unsure if pullet or too.
This Easter egger is quite a bit bigger than the others. It also jumps around and at the others in a dominant way. The picture doesn’t show it well but the comb is quite a bit redder than the others.

You don't mention age? That's an important piece, however.... I can say with confidence that the EE is a cockerel. The dark red wing bars are a big indicator, along with the size and color of the comb.
The SLW, if they're young (I don't see saddle feathers yet) is very likely a cockerel as well. Chicken puberty happens at about 12 weeks, and that's when those male and female saddle feathers come in.
