How Do You Tell The Difference Between A Rooster From A Hen...

[kyla]

I have a couple of chickens who are young, and one looks like its growing into a rooster. But the person who sold them to me said that they were "hens". How can I tell the difference?

If you can post a picture of them and someone maybe able to tell you.
