I have two Barred Rocks who are almost 7 weeks. I think that they are pullets. Any help would be appreciated since I would need to rehome any roosters.

For barred rocks, males will have brighter barring. At 7 weeks, most cockerels will have more prominent combs and waddles than what we're seeing. They are pullets.
Thank you. I thought so , bit was worried. Stevie Chicks and Attila the Hen will be happy as well.
 
They're both girls.

I highly recommend you get those leg bands off before they damage their legs, they look like they're getting too tight. And luckily enough your girls look different from each other.
Thank you for the advice. I just them off . They were very stretchy and came off easily. I’ve been checking because I was worried about circulation. I’m an RN, but not an experienced keeper.
