What breed and age are they? Dont think they are all Roos but that info is helpful.
 
First one is a Brahma, Second no idea...was my sisters chick got left with it...the two small ones are booted and the black one is my sisters other chick i hate this bird with a passion all of the chicks are 16 weeks
 
No expert here but see lots of pointy neck feathers and curly tail feathers. Not a great sign. Maybe som EEs? The experts will let you know!
 
Other than the pointed neck feathers I'm going with Girl for Lucy. The other mulicolored ones I agree Roo. The black one...looks like a Roo body shape but not a huge red comb or wattle for that age so guess it would depend on the breed. Probablynot much help but its fun guessing.
 
Give it a few more weeks, but I'd say at 16 weeks, the light brahma is a girl, buff brahma is a girl, black one is a girl, the booted bantams are both boys.
