i will try to run out and get better ones in a few. these 2 just look soo different and they are my last hope for a pied male so that may be clouding my view lol.
the smaller one im 85% sure is a hen. brown flights, losing the barring
but the older one has rusty flights, still has baring.

Based on coloring in the photo since that's all I can make out the one on the right I would guess hen for how dark it is and the one on the left is bigger and seems to be a lighter color and looking like a male. Try to get a good picture on the shoulders so we can make accurate guesses with these chicks. I would guess male and female but until a picture focused really well on the shoulders I won't make a definite answer only guess.
 
the size difference is due to age. the larger one is almost 2 weeks older than the other. but i will get pics in the am. hopefully they will cooperate i dont want to catch them and stress them out.

Is this pied chick a cock or hen?? I'm pretty sure my other one is a hen but she's dark and 8 weeks, this pied pictured is only 7 weeks.

I sure can't tell at 7 weeks.
Opinions?
