My new oegb's are they really a pair or both roo's??

[luvchicks8]

I picked these 3 up from a friend asked me if I wanted them said take them if I do. Of course I did but she said that the blue were a pair.
Also any guesses on age?
I know that the one in back is a roo the one in front is the question

This is the for sure roo (age?)

Girl or boy ???they are the same age just not sure what that age is? Hatched two days apart

My guess is that the other will be a hen, though I am certainly no expert. Can you post a pic with something for size comparison, like a Coke can? Do they look full size to you?

I think they are both cockerels. The one with the bigger comb is obviously very young because of his relatively small comb. The other one, being the same age would have a practically nonexistent comb if it were a young pullet.

i think the chicken in ? is a girl. just with my experince thats wat i think.

I can get better pics tomorrow . I just got them tonight. All I was told is that they were born 2 days apart the ? hen born first roo born after. They are about 71/2 inches by ruler . The for sure rooster has much thicker legs and obvious larger comb.

Combs can vary a lot, but the thicker legs about convinces me only one is a roo.

Well it's not a great pic but on the last shot you can see the difference in leg thickness and coms also saddle feathers on the roo look different but I am definatly not convinced but I sure was when I saw them I had to have both there for they had to be a pair lol.
