Hens or roos? I got these 3 as "pullets" from my local feed mill. I feel like 2 are a little rooster like. Thoughts?

The more mature looking Ivory Sasso is a little fiesty, which got me thinking rooster but also crouches down if I pet it which I'm thinking is hen behaviour ?

Pullets can be feisty too
