I think I second bantamfanforlife. I think I see two cockerals. The two in the front, the silkie and the buff orpington/RIR cross. It's my understanding that comb size and comb color are indicators to what sex you may have. If they are only 3 months, the comb is very developed on the silkie and bright red which would lead me to think rooster. The RIR cross has a larger/wider comb than the others I would say are pullets.

When I said I saw one cockerel I was only including the RIR/Buff Orpington crosses. The one with the muffed cheeks also acctually may be a cockerel, you'll need to get better pictures though.

wrong color & wrong type comb on your white silkie - shouldn't be used for breeding. Should have walnut comb and black skin. True silkie features.
