Male or female?

[BarbaraJean67]

2 Barred Rock, 4 1/2 weeks old. I thought they were female when I bought them. Now I'm not sure. What do you think?

One on the right is a cockerel.
One on the left I'm leaning towards also cockerel but it could go either way.

For now I’m thinking you have a pair. The one farthest from the fence being the cockerel. Though I could see the one next to the fence being male too.

Agree. Though I'll stick with a pair for now.

Repost pics at 6wks, try including one with their wattles showing.

They are 6 weeks, today. I think the darker chick with the pink comb is a female, and the lighter chick with the orange/red comb is a male. Is this correct?
