Easter Eggers can be this color, or any color for that matter. I have some too. LOL I am trying to figure out which are roos, looks like most of them, I hatched out 2 batches. Just my luck. If these two are more aggressive, eat more, chase the others, and are a pain, they are probably roosters. Look at their legs as they grow. The pullets will have slender legs, the cockerels legs will thicken up as they grow. We have a saying around here, if they crow, off with their heads!

Hi,
Sounds like cockerels, and also sounds like chickens in need of a dinner invite. They have so much to bring to the table up until about 16 weeks, then it varies by breed and line as to when they're too tough for anything but soup.
Their faces are awfully red for pullets at that age. And good roosters don't bite or flog.
