Salmon favorelle sexing confirmation please?

I have a 4.5 week old and a 3.5 week old, the older (3rd & 4th pics) I’m pretty sure is a pullet, but I suspect the younger one (pics 1 & 2) is a roo? They just look SO different...:.Thanks for your input!

The first one is a cockerel and the second a pullet.

Yes, I purchased them SR, a week apart from the same hatchery Bc I panicked after getting the first one and wanted to increase my odds of getting a hen!

Bummer about the cockerel, but I’m glad to get the little girl! One of my first chickens about 6 yrs ago was a SR SF that turned out to be a cockerel. I was so sad - we can’t have them in city limits, and he really seemed to be a sweet guy. I’ve always wanted more of this breed
