Hi, welcome to BYC! :frow

Those may be Araucana crosses but not pure in my experience. They shouldn't be crested or have rumps if true Araucana. And they should have tufts not muffs...

Where did those come from? The bearding gene inhibits waddles so they should be pretty small still on both genders. They look to be Lavender or Splash in color. At this age you can only go by body size and comb/waddle color and size. In a few weeks they will start to grow saddle feather which tell the whole story in most breeds..

None of those photos are close or clear enough to make an educated guess on gender yet.

The crests are cute, curious to know what they really are? Lovely birds! :love

They are Araucanas.
There are two different types. This type, and the type the OP has. Overseas, the crested type is more common. But they are a true breed.
 
We need close up pics of their combs, please.

The European Araucana is a different bird that we have here in the states - just in case that is where the OP is located.

To the OP :welcome single profile shots of the birds would help with gender ID.
Hmm curious how two birds with completely different traits can be the same breed... I get different standards but that's huge. Anyways, NEVER stop learning! :wee
