Male or female?

I've been trying to figure out if my chickens are hens or roosters.

They're 12 weeks old.

Both look like pullets.

Both look like pullets.

I am hoping they are!

The first one looks like a cockerel and second pullet to me (like closeness to camera in the second picture)

I’m not sure though, I just think I see some suspicious saddle feathers. Could you get a better picture of the saddle area of the one with the lighter neck?

That looks like a pullet. Is it younger in that picture than the first ones?

I’m starting to think they are both pullets, but I’m not sure. There will be other replies from people more experienced than me!

The second one almost looks like a cockerel to me...but I'm not sure. Hopefully they're both pullets!
