So, the brown ones appear to have partridge feathering, which is specific to females. We would need age and close-up photos of the combs to be sure about the others.

That breed description confused me. Are the birds crosses?

Wellbar is a mix with wellsummer and white leghorn male ...... French black copper are pure
 
Welbars are usually a welsummer, barred rock mix, then the males will have barring like the barred rocks, so you can tell at hatch if they are male or female. Did you breed them or buy them? If somewhere said welbar, they are probably that cross.

Age would help, too. Do you know the age?

I bought them from a breeder age 3 weeks old

Welbar is a welsummer and barred rock mix, and they are autosexing, which means males are double barring and lighter color. If yours are welsummer and leghorn mix, then they are not Welbars and so is not autosexing. You will need to wait several more weeks before you can tell the gender.
