Lavender Orpington?

Second chick. Also feathering out much more quickly I'll continue to update periodically until I know for sure what these two, namely the first chick, turn out to be.

Updated pictures: Still not many changes. They're about eight weeks old now. One is definitely a cockerel. No muffs or beard to be seen. The first picture is a comparison of the first chick (the most questionable one) and another definite Ameraucana cockerel that I have who is the same age. They were the same size when I brought them home but the size difference is huge now. Hard to tell but the black cockerel is four times bigger.

Interesting. The second chick is actually blue, not lavender. Definitely keep updating if you can.
 
You have a Blue and a Lavender Ameraucana. The Lavender is definitely a cockerel. The Blue might be but I'm leaning pullet for the moment.
 
This is this second chick at almost ten weeks now. Starting to show small muffs/beard. The lavender cockerel still has no signs of a beard/muff and has grayish legs, not the black or dark gray I'd expect of the breed but that could change.

First one is a blue ameraucana. The second is a lavender ameraucana mix. Maybe lav ameraucana x lav Orpington.
