I think so as well. I see some more hackles. those long feathers in the neck are hackles. there are only a couple breeds where the roosters dont have them and have hen plumage instead. for me I judge them either by a crow or the hackles.

The second one may be a pullet, basically they look like Blue Ameraucanas, the cockerel with red leakage in the hackle and the possible pullet with silver leakage.

Both cockerels is my guess. But both are nice looking! I just love that copper and grey together.
