Chicken 1 is an EE and a suspected Roo. What do you guys think?

Chicken 2 is either a Black Australorp or a Blue Wyandotte... not sure which breed and also a suspected Roo because of what looks like saddle feathers to me. Any ideas on gender or breed?

The EE is a beautiful cockerel.

The second one is a black Wyandotte cockerel. Has a rosecomb, and is not blue.
 
The Wyandotte was sold to me as a Blue Wyandotte. Obviously the actual color is black, but when I asked this question here on BYC, some of the Wyandotte people chimed in that Blue's can come in Blue or Black...

Either way, thank you guys!

What they meant is that blue does not breed true, so breeding blue birds will toss out blue, black, and/or splash birds.
