I'm new to having chicks... I only have these 2 Barred Rocks right now... one seems to crow in the AM only... they're about 13-14 weeks old right now... They do fight often with each other... I'm thinking they are both Roo's.. if so they will have to head to the farm this weekend...

Both boys for sure... dead give away in the face with those combs and waddles at that age. If a hen looked like that she would have above average comb and be like a year old or more and laying eggs.

Thanks everyone for their 2 cents... off to the farm we go today! I'll miss these little guys!
 
I agree, roosters. And just for education, the black and white bird is a barred rock. Barred referrs to that color, with the bars of black and white. Your white bird may be a white rock, or a something else, can't really tell from the pic, but that's a good guess.
