All were hatched around 4th july. Ok 2 buffs combs are coloring I think they are roos although one was feather faster like the one I think is a dark pullet. the darks I am 85 % I got 1 each and last photo was an unknown breed silvery chick it is a roo for sure crowing already his face is in the bottom right next to pullet in third photo any guesses for breed? What are your thoughts about these flock additions?

I think you're correct on gender.
You need to get some body shots of the silver cockerel so we can decide the breed. I'm guessing wyandotte but I think there's also that color in brahma.
 
He does not have feathered legs and came from a box that had a lot of Silkies. He kinda had muff appearance when he was smaller but not so much now.

I just noticed these red/brown feathering today after introduction with my 3 older hens and thought he was hurt! Glad to find it was feather color and not blood. We ended up with 2 silkies too and no idea on them to if males or females one is a banty version for sure. So I got 4 giant birds 2 normal and 1 tiny. This photo is the silver roo a few days old.
