What hen is the mother to these chicks?

All I really know is that the father is a light brahma. The hens I have are speckled sussex, welsummer, plymouth rock, and wyandotte. Does anyone know which hen would produce these chicks. They all have feathered feet, two are the same and the other is different.

Yes, x2 knowing the parent colors will help immensely.  I can tell you right off the bat that the chicks with the messy faces are likely Wyandotte offspring though.

They wyandottes are silver laced, and as for the rocks i think they are barred, but here is a pic for safe measures.
