Roosters or hens??

[featheredfeet71]

Hi all! These two are about 9 weeks old. I'm hoping someone in the community might know if they are hens or roosters. Based on their size and behavior, I think the black and white one is a rooster but I'm not sure. One of the adult hens is picking on the black and white one, but not the bantam. Thanks in advance for your help friends!

First one is a pullet. Second one is possibly a cockerel but I'm not entirely sure.

I have to agree. The brown one is a pullet, with no doubts. The pattern on the feathers is a female pattern. The mottled, is a cockerel, with no doubts. A pullet's comb will not be that big and red at 8 weeks.

Thank you! You are confirming my thoughts exactly.
