I have two Rhode Island reds a little over two weeks old and was woundering to to tell if there a hen or rooster if anyone knows it will help a lot!!
 
roos have redder combs, larger feet and joints at top of legs that are larger. 2 weeks is too soon to tell, but another way is to vent check if you lift the tail enough to lift up the upper lip of the bung you might see a dolup like the little bead that hangs from a babies lip. compare it to the other chickens butts. that is a boy.
