I posted these guys a few weeks ago but was told to wait until fully feathered. Both from the same clutch and about 10 weeks old now.

No, the one in the 2nd and 3rd picture.
Oh you’re kidding! I was way off base then lol, I thought the first one was a boy. What gives it away? Attaching a clearer photo as I didn’t realise his head was blurred in the first one. Is it because his comb is darker? Is the tail of significance? Thank you!

Upon closer inspection, that appears to be a female. In the first photos I thought the comb was larger; but they both look like girls :)
(To me)
 
I'm going against the grain those both look like pullets to me at 10 weeks old. If they were 5 weeks I would say the comb at the one angle look a little large, but at 10 weeks I'm definitely leaning pullet.
