Can you help me decide if these leghorns are Roos or hens? I’m getting two eggs per day so I know I have two ladies. And does anyone know what breed my frizzled speckled snuggle bug of a hen is? Thank you all!!!!!

The Leghorns are pullets. If you're not "in" the eggs now, you should be before too long! Gorgeous ladies.
Here is a saddle pic for your own reference from google in case you see something I don't. They'd be well showing/flowing by the stated ages (usually starting around 12 weeks)..

That other lady is not technically frizzled (feather type, she is smooth) or speckled (pattern).. but her color is known as Splash. I'm not so clear on her breed though.. are you able to see if that's a pea, rose, or other comb she's sporting? It doesn't look straight from what I can see. Did she come from a specific hatchery, back yard, or where from? Sometimes that can help narrow it down a bit.
That’s cool! I just looked them up! She’s so funny. She’s very round with short wings and hilarious when she runs. She’s so soft and sweet. No telling how she ended up at TSC but I’m glad she landed here with usSplash lady looks to be a wyandotte of some kind. But all hens.
They are all beautiful not sure what the speckled girl is but she's adorable.Can you help me decide if these leghorns are Roos or hens? I’m getting two eggs per day so I know I have two ladies. And does anyone know what breed my frizzled speckled snuggle bug of a hen is? Thank you all!!!!!
