What kind of comb does the little guy have? I too am leaning cockerel, but it’s early to know for sure.

Here a couple close ups of his comb so far.

Ok, it looks like a single comb, which is what I thought. He could be either an Ancona or Mottled Java, or possibly an Exchequer leghorn, though those are less common.
 
Would you say that chick looks delicate compared to the others?
Anconas should be finer boned and have longer legs compared to other breeds.

It definitely has longer legs. It does seem a slimmer maybe. Don’t know if you can tell in this photo with all of them or not.
