What breed(s) do you have? Except in a few specific situations, you can't sex chicks at 2 weeks old : D

You won't be able to sex them at that age.

If their combs and wattles get start turning red they are most likely a roos. But you should be able to tell by 6 weeks their gender

Over time her comb and wattles will turn red to, but for now they will probably stay a slightly pink color.

Try to wait till they get fully feathered and look at the feathers on the neck hen should be round and rooster should be pointy and triangle shaped same with the wings.
