Are these hens or one is different from the other? Also, what breed are they?

One is definitely a pullet. I'm not ywt convinced the other is male. They're mix breeds, mist likely of some local breeds you have in your country
 
That looks like it has male specific feathering. My guess is that it's either a Black Sexlink cross, an Orpington cross or potentially a cross between the two breeds.
Do you have any idea what the parents looked like?
Its father had similar color like this and the mother was exactly like the one on the left on the pic.
I am very confused about this one right here whether it's a pullet or cockerel

OK, now I am leaning cockerel on this one
I'm have no prior chicken experience but the thing is, this one got a voice change before the other one. Although both of them were born on the same day, and the development of this one was slow at the start and kicked off after 2 months and had a voice change before the other one. The other one still sounds like a 2 days old chick.
 
I think I'm seeing some male specific feathers on the neck, I'm thinking cockerel.
Take your guess on its gender.
P.S. this one got the voice change first before the other one. The other one still sounds like a 2 days old chick.

I'm leaning cockerel.
The voice change could be a sign of a boy.
I heard most of the single comb chickens grow combs and wattles from a very young age like after 5-6 weeks. But this one got after 2 months and has a single comb too. Is it possible that some single comb roosters develop their combs and wattles very late compared to the ordinary ones? If it wasn't about the voice change, I wouldn't have got in confusion. It's 50-50 at this point.

Cockerels can feather in slower than pullets.
The voice change also indicates cockerel.
