I have a crested cream legbar that is looking like a rooster to me though I know they are supposed to be autosexting and I bought two females. They are 8 weeks old. Photo 1 is the suspected rooster 2nd is the none I’m thinking is a hen 3rd shows them from above

Both have female specific coloring, they are 100% both female. It's not uncommon for hatchery birds to have non-standard features (like not quite the right color)

This was my cream legbar from Meyer. As you can see, she's a very different color from either of your girls. Sadly we lost her at around 9 months of age to reproductive issues (right ovarian cyst). You can see how big and pendulous her abdomen is in this picture. Not the hatchey's fault, just our bad luck.
