Roo or pullet please help

The faverolle is a pullet, no doubts. Male and female salmon faverolles are sexually dimorphic; meaning the male and female looks completely different. Females are the color of your bird. Males are black and silver.
The second bird doesn't look like an araucana cross. It looks like a cross, but not an araucana. Wrong comb for one.
How old are your birds? Depending on age, the red could be a cockerel, but the age is important.
the black chicken next to the red is a cockerel. You can tell because of the colors.
Approximately 18 weeks - I think I heard him attempt a crow when I bought the faverolles home but due to the tail feathers on one of the faverolles they look the same and if the faverolle is a pullet then I'm not sure about the red/brown one now?

The red is a pullet.
Do you have other pics of the black?
 
I'd honestly like to see more pics of that bird. At this point, I see the possibility of wing bars, but I don't really see the male saddle feathers a bird this age should have plenty of if male.

Hi everyone, I am new to BYC and faverolle chickens so need some help with sexing one in particular.
I have had chickens for a quite a few years and have tried various breeds. We have a bantam road island red, 5 isa browns. Then I added what was supposed to be 3 araucanas girls but 2 turned out to be roos unfortunately and I am not allowed to keep them (absolutely devastated) as they are beautiful.
So I drove 3hr round trip for 2 faverolles but I really think one is a roo due to the tail for one, so any help would be great as the seller is still saying its a pullet? I have my doubts after the last fail with my other two roos - one of which had a similar tail. The last photo is of the other one and I am sure it is a pullet. Thanks in advance and look forward to learning more in my love of these beautiful creatures.

The red is a cockerel, and looks to be a mix of mixes that might have some Easter egger ancestry. Definitely not an araucana, and doesn’t appear to be an araucana mix.
