What are these? Sex and breed?

Hi All,
This is my first post. I wanted to include a lot of photos in hopes that it will help. We have two chickens that were born May 14 or 15 as a school project. My son brought these home and we have no idea of breed or sex. They are coming up on 11 weeks old. At some point early on Chicken A, the all-black one, grew WAY BIGGER than Chicken B, the one with the white and black hackle feathers. As chicks they were both mostly all black with a little bit of white. I know it's horrible that they haven't been named. We have various nick-names but I didn't want to name them and have them fully become family members because they may have to be rehomed if one or both are roosters. I have a wonderful lady that will take them if either or both are roosters. YAY.

Any educated guesses?

has a bigger and darker comb, might be roo, post a better pic of both chicks with them together (visible of both heads) A looks more of pullet, possible both pullets but just my opinion.
 
These are a few more of Chicken A ... Getting them in a shot together clearly, is going to be tough work but I will try tomorrow.

What about foot size? Chicken A has big ass legs and feet...Chicken B is more dainty footed.
Well, my female ducks feet are just as big as my drakes so telling them that way wasn't much help.. you might be right though and they might both be pullets, they might not. but im thinking roo and pullet
