X2looks like two pullets to me
Pullets can get what look like sickle feathers in tthe tail area during their mini-molts around this age. That's why it's important to look at all charactetistics rather than one..... these birds have small combs and wattles even toned plumage over the body, no male saddle or hackle feathering (&appear to be of the age these would be emerging), etc.....The one on the right just seems larger and tail feathers look more like a rooster. But that's why I posted, because I'm not good at determining which sex the are.
