How's My Chick Doin'?

My bigger one is about 42-43 days old, and I hafen't give it bath once yet. It stinks a little, how should I give it proper bath?

It might need a bigger area to live in. I've always heard that clean chicken coops/brooders/cages don't stink....so maybe his waste and any other things need (1) Cleaned more often or (2) He needs a bigger space.

As the article states, chickens don't normally need baths. Maybe you should put a pan of dirt in the cage, because he will dustbathe and keep himself clean naturally. Also when are you posting more photos?

Thanks! Wow I think I should put aan of dirt, because after finishing their food they go inside the feeder and try to dustbathe even though theres nothing.
 
Ok here are the pics!
This is their cage - http://m.imgur.com/QLiAsDa

I'm wondering if my little chick is a pullet or a cock? I hope it's a pullet! - http://m.imgur.com/aoe2888
I took them a picture to compare it easily if they're pullets or cocks, probably the bigger one is a cock - http://m.imgur.com/peELZy6

Please let me know if their cage is good for them and please help me find out their gender!
