8 straight runs... now 8-9 weeks old... 7 likely roosters?!?

Pics
Here are my updated photos! Most of the birds are 12 weeks old now. (The new one is 7 weeks, 2 are 11.5 weeks, and three are 13 weeks.) The Ayam Cemani, Polish, & black Silkie are all crowing.

What are your thoughts on the sexed pullet Blue Laced Red Wyandotte, the Mottled Cochin, the white frizzle Silkie, the Showgirl, and the blue Silkie? Their combs/wattles, though some pinked up early, haven’t changed much at all in the last month. Only the blue Silkie acts like a roo and often challenges the Black Silkie cockerel (chest bump, face offs, jumping on top). “His” comb has grown. Showgirl’s comb hasn’t grown, nor have any signs of wattles appeared. White frizzle silkie’s comb is still flat/no change in wattles.

Thanks!
did this first pic of the wyandotte turn out to be a female? Mine is same age and resembles the small reddish comb and waddles .
 
Another update:
My Cochin just hatched out seven beautiful chicks yesterday!! (She went broody about two months ago & I got her some fertile Serama & Silkie eggs

The Brahma and Showgirl lay regularly... as did Cochin before she went broody.

The Polish, Ayam Cemani, & three Silkie cockerels all still got along in the bachelor coop just fine, but they had to go after they started attacking children.

We kept Curly, the frizzled white Silkie. He is a gentleman to his ladies and to all humans. (I need to get a photo of everyone together some time when it’s not raining.)
