I got these two about 5 days ago and one is laying an egg every day but I am not sure which one. I was told they were white leghorns but I am not sure as they seem quite small to me. Can you tell about how old they are from the pic? Or is there a way to tell? Also I am pretty sure they are both hens but since only one is laying, do they both look like hens?

The both look like lovely leghorn ladies
 
Thank you, I guess I thought leghorns were bigger. Is it possible that one is not laying because it was getting beat up by the previous owners rooster?

I'm on a phone, so photo's are a little tough for me to see well, but it's a possibility stress will stop them from laying for a little bit...

Now that I'm a computer they look more like tetra tints...
