RIR What Gender are they?

I'm new to raising chickens, and ended up getting 9 chick, 2 of which are RIR from a straight run bin at Tractor Supply. Any opinions on gender would help.

Dark tail feathers? You mean becasue the are black tipped?

 

[Sherloki]

Yeah I didn't realize that all Reds have black tips on tails, and I was afraid that this meant that they were probably roos.

Both my RIR pullets got black tail feathering, we're going but the comb & wattle size/color

Ok cool! Very happy that they're both pullets, I wouldn't want to have to get rid of them.
