All my other girls look like hen to the left.. Hen to the right is the one making me wonder as her comb and wattle both are developing more than the rest..

They are almost 15 weeks old!

Need body shot but I say a hen. Breed? Can be just that she has developed quicker than the other one.
 
She still looks like a hen to me. You might look at the saddle area and the hackles for pointed feathers, but I think girl with a darker, slightly bigger comb. A month from now, you will have no doubt.
 
Well, they kind of look like white Leghorns to me. Which if that's the case, they could be POL hens. I would like to see a full side on body pic as well as a pic of the saddle feathers (immediately in front of the tail) to be able to make a more educated response.
