I am so confused about these two babies. They are 8.5 weeks old. Ive had people tell me pullets before, but now some are saying they both look like cockerels. What do you all think?

Pullets! 100%
Im going to be the Debbie downer here....I think they are both males...Sussex grow slower and don't show their Combs as fast as other chickens do....the Combs on a pullet would be smaller than what urs are in this picture....
Yours are pullets.
If they were cockerels I’m pretty sure they’d be developing wattles and they and the combs would be getting red.
Here’s an 8 week old Naked Neck cockerel.
Notice Conan’s obvious comb and wattles and how pink they are. (Lol, he took a selfie )
