Hen might be a rooster.

We recently got two hens for my lonely rooster, and they have finally gotten alone and seem very happy together. The two new ones are silkies, or at least one is. The other seems to be mixed with Silkie since she has the extra toes and everything.
But, this mixed one might be a rooster. And we're afraid of that, since then we'll only have one hen and two roosters which isn't ideal. She has long, point neck feathers and the same feathers at the start of her tail feathers. She crowed a few days ago, and again this morning.
I'm not sure what to do. Do we get another hen? We're already grown attached so we don't really want to give her away.
So far our original rooster doesn't seem to mind at all. He still calls them for food, and then the other "rooster" comes for the food? Maybe it's just a hen that looks and acts like a rooster?
What should we do?

Some photos would help people ID the gender of the bird.

She, maybe he, has a fluffy butt, no spurs as far as I can see, but quite big in size, especially when compared to our other rooster. Might even be a little bigger than our other rooster, or about the same size.

That is a handsome bird! If she is crowing she must be a he, I would say.

Oooee I was hoping he'd be a hen but it's fine, I think we will get another hen to even it out a little more. At least the two roosters seem to like each other, hopefully it doesn't change.

yes, it's a rooster. You can tell by the hackle feathers. They are pointy as well as the feathers by the tail... colorful and those decorative pointy rooster feathers. A hen wouldn't have those. Sorry!

Both birds pictured are males

The silkie too? that one hasn't crowed or done anything to imply she's a male for us, but we don't really know what male silkies look like either.
On another note though, they both sound like hens? They don't have that deep rooster voice like most, they sound like a stereotypical hen. Except for the crowing of course.

Yes, that one looks like a male as well. @MysteryChicken @JedJackson do you agree?

They have not exhibited the typical rooster behaviours because they're still young. The mix has only just started crowing, the other one might take some more time

The Silkie is a a cockerel also.
