Can you get better pics of them from the side?

I believe I see male specific saddles feathers.

The one in front is definitely male. I can't see the other one very well. There were definitely male saddles in the pics in post #1, but I don't know which bird they were.

I can't see enough details in the new pics. I saw the saddles in the first pics. Was going to try and confirm. Thanks Em!

The one on the right in the first pic is definitely cockerel but I'm not sure about the other one. I think these are both boys though.

That's my suspicion too. Was really hoping at least one was a hen. My kids love them sooo much but we are not allowed roosters in our area.
