What sex are these 9 week old Barnevelders please? Lots of Photos : )

Please help us sex these 9 week old chicks which our Broody Barnevelder hatched out for us. We initially thought roosters before the Feathers came properly, but now? One at least looks very Henny.. It is a worry that occasionally they have a stand off with some kicking, but it's very rare.. Do Young Hens do this?

All guesses welcome! : )

Hens stay, Roosters away..

Yep : ) Counted the weeks from my diary entries..

Just remembered one chick was bought in a week later, so the one on the right in photo number 3 is a week younger.. Since the photos were taken, that one's comb seems redder than the older one. I thought their combs and wattles were large from the beginning : /

I'd be interested what you guys think is the Cockerel giveaway? Is it the combs?

Thanks for all the input : )
