Last one for today. Bought as straight run. Leaning towards #2 being cockerel just due to the darker and longer tail, but thinking both might be. What do you guys think?

Around 3 months old

They both look like pullets to me.
I'm not at all experienced, but I have a Speckled Sussex rooster. Here's a photo of him at two months old. His comb was way more developed and red by this point. I have a feeling your SS would be more obviously a boy by this point. But like I said, I'm not an expert.☺️
The second photo is a comparison of my rooster and hen at a little over a month old.

I’d say pullets too. Here’s a few photos of our girl Stardust last year as she was growing up, and her now 🥰
