My daughter's classmate hatched these in science class, and we found ourselves with chickens (the excuse I've been looking for!)
I know the eggs came from a local feed supply, and when I called they said they couldn't help with identification.

The lighter one (1) has been larger from the start, and is approximately 2 days older then the red (2). #1 tends to boss #2 around and started crowing about 5 days ago. These images are from the past 2 weeks so they are ~11-13 weeks old.

Please help me confirm their sex and ideas on breed if possible!

Im thinking two cockerels, but numbers two is kinda hard to tell
I've gone back and forth with this opinion as well. They are so similar in feathering, but #1 has the comb and waddle and has since... ~6 weeks really. #2 has JUST beging to show comb.
