I'd also vote on both Cochins being boys. I had two that I just placed at 8 weeks when they both ended up being boys. Similar combs - though smaller than yours. One of them starting crowing and, well, that was the final clue. Sorry!
 
Thanks for everyones input,The cuckoo bird is definetely a danver, thanks for the picture from feathersite, my little bird looks 100% identical,Regarding the cochins I still think I have 1 roo,1 hen,my idea is the wattles which are pendulous on one but very small on the other bird.or does this not mean anything also the comb is slightly smaller though it doesnt look on the photoThe one with the longer wattles is crowing and spars up to my young polish and has started to tread the danver but the other cochin is more submissive,Thanks again folks,I have two light sussex bantams that I am trying to get photos so you guys can gender them for me
