Ordered 10 Swedish Flower + 4 CCL pullets from Bresse Farms. Got 13 chicks (*one was missing from order.)

2 look like Swedish, 1 looks like a CCL pullet. 7 look like these in the pics - barred wings, etc. Definitely not Swedish Flower, but numbers are wrong for the CCL hens, because I only ordered 4 pullets.

Are these CCL roosters? I've had Swedish Flower before and CCL crosses, but this is my first time with pure CCL babies. Help??

This next one has a smaller comb - is it a hen?

Can take more pics of each if needed - appreciate the help! Thanks!!
 
They look like they're all cockerels except for one, which is the one in the bottom picture.

In your second picture, it looks like you have one bleeding? I don't know when you took these pictures or if you've already treated that chick, but I figured I'd point it out just in case you accidentally missed it.

Yes, I saw that bleeding, they just started pecking on him this morning! Which is what motivated me to post right now - if I can figure out the roosters 100% then I can move the extras out and hopefully less crowding will help, in addition to ointment treatments and extra protein for all.

I just gave them some scrambled eggs and also moved them into a larger coop, to hopefully reduce the pecking behavior before it gets ingrained. Here's better pics of three - are any of these hens?
