Sorry if I did this incorrectly I've never used this website! Anyway, I know nothing about chickens or about these chickens, does anyone know what they are? They were already different sizes when I got them, one of them has grown a ton and the other hasn't grown that much. Is the big one a male? The red patches on the big one are new, it looked much more black and white before. I've had them for like 3 weeks.

PS the cardboard box is in there because they like it, and they have an actual feeder and water thing in their little area/run thing, this is all just extra stuff out here. but if there's something that looks super wrong please let me know because I've never had a chicken before and I truly have no idea what I'm doing.

EDIT adding a picture of the small bird (total of 2 chickens in this situation):

You are correct. The lightest (lightest one with the red patches) is a cockerel.

The second one could be a slower developing cockerel. Hard to say for sure without knowing age though.

Welcome to the forum and to chickens!

Do they have a solid structure (coop) to go into for sleeping and inclement weather?
