Pretty sure they are both cockerel, as one is already trying to crow lol. The other Im not sure... First the one that crows...

Now the mystery man...

Here are the two together, kind of...

 

[Ol Grey Mare]

Yes, two cockerels

 

[crazy4ChickensNducks]

You’re right

 

[chrissynemetz]

It does look like two cockerels :/

 

[Frazzemrat1]

both cockerels.


Btw, the first pic... the feet look pinkish on the bottom. Are they, or is it just the lighting? Pinkish would indicate that he's an Austrolorp, yellow is a BJG.

 

[Acre4Me]

I think both are male.

BJG breed standard indicates yellow on bottom of feet. And Black Australorp has pinkish feet bottoms as @Frazzemrat1 mentioned.

Here is thread on feet color for BA and BJG:
