Wyandotte mix and definitely a roo!

Looks like a Silver Laced Wyandotte mix to me.

Looks like a Silver Laced Wyandotte mix rooster to me, too. If you post photos of your other birds, we'll be happy to help you find out their breeds too!

The two black birds may be Black Copper Marans or Marans mixes. Not all Black Copper Marans seem to get the copper coloration, so that one all black bird could still be one. Its also possible that the all black one is an Australorp mix. As for the buff bird, she could be an Easter Egger. However, not all Easter Eggers have blue legs, and not all birds with blue legs are Easter Eggers. She could be a pretty barnyard mix that won't lay green/blue eggs- but you won't know until she starts laying!

Updated photos might help, but these are my guesses for now.

I agree with Wyandottes7's thoughts. Your two black birds are probably both Black Copper Marans, or at least a mixed breed that contains Black Copper Marans. Regardless of their exact mix, they should still lay nice dark eggs.

Your buff bird could be a non-bearded or muffed Easter Egger, or it may not. A photo of its comb may help--if it has a single comb, then it is probably not an EE. If it has a pea comb, then it is almost certainly an EE. Of course, you won't really know for sure until she starts producing eggs.

And in case you were wondering, all of them (except your confirmed rooster) are definitely pullets.

The last looks to be an EE to me, and boy is she cute! What a sweet pic.

Both Silkies look like pullets to me. I'm not seeing any signs of streamers (pointy feathers in the crest), and not much comb and wattle development.

Do both black birds have feathers on their feet? I think that the one with feathers on its feet and orange in its neck feathers is a Black Copper Marans. If the other one has feathers on its feet as well, it may be one too. Otherwise, I think it is an Australorp.

Charlotte does appear to be an Easter Egger pullet.

Pullet, possibly a Black Austrolorp.
