Hi! I am new to chickens and just hatched my first incubated eggs on Jan 15. So they are about 5 weeks old now. Still in the house but ready to head to the heated barn soon. My father in law gave me eggs and an incubator for Christmas! However, he didn't get any info on the types of chicken eggs he bought🤦‍♀️. I have most figured out but since I'm new I have no idea what these ones are. I'm assuming all different coloured Easter eggers or Wyandotte's? I'm probably way off haha. Help! Any help on how to best guess the sex of my chicks would be awesome too! Thanks!!

I think they are Wyandottes. The white ones are called columbian.
The two black ones may be silver laced.
The black one with more white look a lot (in the feather color) like a mix I had between a light Brahma and a black Australorp.

They are all Wyandottes, just different colors: the white with black necks are columbians, the black ones are probably silver laceds and the last ore are whites
