Male or female?

The coloring, and the comb and wattles.
I have to agree with Margo. :goodpost: I believe they look like roosters, but that second one is slightly questionable.
This is our rooster Faith:

Both look male to me. The combs and wattles are just too developed and red. Hackle/saddle feathers can take some time to come in, so the combs and wattles are usually more reliable. What breeds are they? Or are they mixes? Do you have others of this type to compare them against? In the very last picture, there's a white chicken on the right - its tiny pale comb and almost nonexistent wattles are what would be expected of a female. Though the rest of the head is not in the frame and I can't tell what type of comb it has... The crested/bearded varieties are harder to sex because their combs and wattles are non-standard.
