Hello Back Yard Experts :-)

I know 2 week is early, but I'm growing so attached to these little fluff balls, and I'm dying to know the genders of my little guys. My son and I hatched them from eggs from our friends flock. They all different mixed breeds. They could be fathered by one of three roosters, an Olive Egger, Welsummer or Legbar roo. The hens were all over the map. The eggs ranged in color from white, to tan, olive and brown and super dark olive. We have 7 babies, and they are now two weeks old. Would love some gender guesses! We're brand new to having chickens, and so far having so much fun with our new little flock.

Thank you so much in advance for your expert opinions. I will post more as they grow.

I would say #6 Is probably a roo. And #2 is the cutest thing ever.

Thank you! Yes #6 is Zan and he’s the one we’re 99.9% sure is a roo, so far. Also his personality so far screams roo...at least from my research. #2 is my favorite! I named her Lady Bird, and I’m hoping she’s a she soooo bad!
 
Ok, I'm attaching picture updates now at 3 weeks tomorrow. Some of them look very similar in the photos, and I'm thinking still too early to tell. We suspect three of them are roosters, mainly based on their personalities and some visual features...but I'm very curious what others think, from the photos.
