Yes the Wellie does look like a Roo. The SS look like a pullet. EE#1 a body shot would help. If there is red in the shoulder area is a roo. EE#2 looks just like my pullet at that age. I have never had Buffs before but from reading on here. If they have even uniform coloring they are pullets, if they have some light and darker spots they are roos. I would wait for someone else to tell you more about them.
 
I still have time to add a pullet to the group to make up for roos. I know of one being a cockerel but now I am suspicious of my EEs and the Buffys. Can you help me sex these guys and gals?

My Wellsummer. Cockerel, right? DEFINITELY BOY.

Speckled Sussex. Got grass stuck in her throat - not crowing hahah I'M LEANING TOWARDS COCKEREL ON THIS ONE TOO.
Buff Orpington
Buff Orpington No1 LOOKS LIKE A PULLET SO FAR.


EE No 1 (i can identify 3 rows on the comb but they are not red) COULD HONESTLY GO EITHER WAY, THE DARK RED ON THE NECK WORRIES ME.

Buff Orpington No2 COCKEREL WITH THAT MUCH "REDNESS"




EE No 1 and 2 (refer to left or right)
EE No2 NOT SURE, I'M THINKING PULLET THOUGH.

I'D WAIT AT LEAST A FEW MORE WEEKS WILL YOU CAN BE SURE OF MOST OF THEM THOUGH. YOU CAN GET RID OF THE WELLIE NOW THOUGH
