What gender are they???

But one of them (the yellow one) seems to have a really rooster posture and some black tail feathers. I just really really really hope I can keep these two. I had two before and people on this website all told me they were pullets and then I got attached then they starting crowing super loud and then I had to give them away but little did I know the people I gave it to killed them I just found out lately and I literally cried I just really hope I can make sure with these two so I can find a good home for them early on if they are roos

tailfeather color has nothing to do with bird gender, and is only part of identifying breed. She looks like a red sex link, production red, or possibly a new Hampshire. There are other possibilities also. She looks like she's 3-4 weeks away from laying, maybe longer. Your black speckled one looks like will be a little bit after the red one.

Thank you so much the reason I mentioned the feathers is because my old roosters had these blackish feathers that started to look more green at the end so I was kinda scared.

A hen's black feathers will get the same shine. It has to do with the molecular structure of the feather and the wat light refracts with it.

More like I can state what she is NOT. She isn't a Rhode Island red, wyandotte, any feather footed or crested bird, an orpington, a sussex, or the incredibly rare breeds.

Options of what she potentially is: production red, ISA brown, red star, new Hampshire___all are brown egg layers

Possibly a beardless EE (if her eggs are blue or green, then likely)

Wheaten marans (long shot, but if eggs are close to chocolate colored, then yes)

Ok yea I know she’s mixed because the father was a Rhode Island red for sure but I just don’t know what the mom was, from the place I got them they had a lot of hens, some New Hampshire red, some barred rock, some mixed barred and New Hampshire maybe? and a gold Wyandotte so maybe do you know who the mom is?
