I think 1 is female, 2 is male, but maybe for 2 try and get a picture of the side of its head.

(6ish week old male for reference.)

Looks like 2 females, but I could be wrong. I think you have at least one hen. Either way, your female(s) will lay eggs, just maybe not fertile if the other is a male.

I believe #1 is female, and #2 is male, but I could be wrong, because I don’t have a ton of experience with bobwhites.

You'll probably be able to tell for sure in a few weeks, especially when the male has more contrast in his face.
