I wouldn't bet on the lighter one being a Roo, looks a lot like my Bossy. She had me waffling back and forth on gender all the way from 6 weeks to 20 weeks and she turned out to be my first and most consistent layer -- and a very strong personality. She was lighter colored, especially around the head, had those pseudo-pointy feathers going on on her rump (now she has no feathers on her rump thanks to Rooster), a long, upright tail, and was the first of the ladies to start turning red.
Here she is at extreme right: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/uploads/25978_s5030680.jpg
Here's her bum now: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/uploads/25978_bossy01.jpg
