So far those both look girly. You could post again in a few weeks for an update.
 
Do you need to see shape or color? Takin the pics and writing this on my android tablet so everything is harder to do, sorry the pics aren't very good, but thx for the help!
 
lol, they look so grown up to me! I guess I will wait awhile and try again:) Oh and I think the black one is a boy because he has all the characteristics of a black sexlink male... and sometimes he jumps around and kind of acts like other young male roosters I've seen. I hope I'm wrong though;thx again folks!
 
That looks like a welsummer pullet. What kind of comb does the black and white one have? it looks sort of flat and bumpy, in which case it is dominique. If its just a regular single comb than I'd guess barred rock. the barring is too regular looking for a black sex-link male.
 
The markings do not look like a welsummer. So many breeds have chicks that are chipmunk in coloring. (Speckled Sussex, Brown Leghorn, just to name a couple) It will be easier to tell when the bird feathers in fully.
