Two mutts but what are the others?

Here are pics of four of my latest hatchlings two of them are from my own flock with a barred mixed breed father and I think my rhode rock hens.

The third one came from an egg marked as Polish.

The fourth was from a mixed batch of pure breed bantams.

Would anyone be able to comment on breed and possibly sex of these?

Your Polish is White Crested Blue and your bantam is Blue or Lavender Silkie.

Thank you, wouldn't a Silkie have 5 toes?

Sometimes they don't, although the standard calls for them. The dark beak and crest give it away.

My apologies, the Silkie does have 5 toes!
