It depends on if the breeding line can be sexed by the down. A lot of hatchery bred birds cannot - there was a similar post a while back which was a hatchery sexed bird that looked male but was female. Looking at it and using the down color as the only point of reference, it for sure looks like a pullet. However.
This particular chick does have a fairly large light spot on its head and a lot of barring on those feathers coming in, but it’s really hard to tell this early on from the pattern of those little feathers. :) where did the eggs come from that you hatched this cutie from?
Fact.
The black one look like a pullet to me but I'm not too sure as its vent sexed as well.
Even professionals have a 10% error when vent sexing. Amateurs - who knows. The black bird looks like a pullet to me.
 
Looks like a girl to me, as long as it is a purebred cream legbar. girls have the black stripe day 1. boys a washed out version.

edit: actually the longer I look at it the less sure I am. I thought it was just feather growth but the stripe isn't that dark as I thought.
