Do you know if it’s true that hens are lighter than roosters?

I really don't know, but the lavender orpington hen and rooster in this picture both look the same color

Curious about this chicken..
We have 6 and this is 1 of 2 that was supposed to be a Barnvelder but it doesn't look anything like the other one. Plus it seems to be the runt. It eats really well and is very tenacious about stealing the other chickens food but just won't grow. We try and make sure it gets more of the greens and worms and anything else we feed them but it's quite a bit smaller. So we're curious about the breed and if there's anything else we can do to jumpstart the growth on this one. So far the other chickens seem to watch out for it instead of bully it... Thank you for any help you can give. They are about 10 weeks.
