Wait until they finish feathering and then post pictures. It's just a bit too soon.

At that age the tail isn't a good indicator of sex. It's still way too early to know for sure but some people say that a heavy, thick eye stripe like your chick has means it's a pullet. So hopefully that is correct and you have a female.
 
Ok... thanks guys this chick just was holding its tail up really high looking like a rooster. Unlike the other one looking like a hen. That's a big relief because I do not want roosters; I strictly want hens that will give me breakfast.
 
They are probably still pullets. The tail says nothing until the male feathers start coming in, which is around twelve weeks. Wait until six weeks, and we should be able to tell you.
