Confirmation of breed and sex for my little pets

Dont be too sure on the cochin.... sorry, but 6 weeks is a little early to be able to tell, cochin mature so slowely.

In the first picture, I though pullet, but the second one sure looks roo-ish, the wattles are awfully red. Sorry.

marans are roos and the cochin looks like a roo for sure in the 2nd picture sorry!!!!!
 
Would be a real shame if the cochin was a rooster we had to rehome. I saw other cochins from the same hatch today and all the rooster looking ones had large red combs, and my hand chicken doesn't have one at all...so fingers crossed.

I got another Maran today, that I am positive is a pullet, very much darker:

Am I safe with the RIR and duck?

Cheers again,

Well here's the lavender cochin at 12-13 weeks now.
Virtually no change in comb and wattles.
