I don't personally see any signs with what's provided to say either of them are roosters. If this assumption was made due to displays of dominance, it's common for one of the hens in the flock to assume the roosters position when one isn't available. If your get one starting to grow a roosters fighting barbs or developing noticeably iridescent and possibly longer tail plumage, You probably have hens. I hope this helps.

She said it was a roo by the size and comb but we didn't see any red color in it
 
That really isn't an accurate identifier at their current age. It's common for chickens even of the same type to develop different attributes at different paces. I was just raising up some jubilee orpingtons. One of them grew in size faster while the other one put on feathers sooner and developed more size later. I personally think you probably have two hens.
