my nuggets are a mix of Rhode Island Reds, New Hampshire Reds, Black Sex Links and Red Sex Links. Here are some pics of some that I could take a picture of. Is the White one a cockeral? Does the thing on the nose determine that? Out of my 6 only 2 has nothing on their nose.

Looks like you have two for sure boys right now, the white one, and the red one with the larger single comb in the third picture.

Photo #1 and #3 are handsome cockerels!

Does the thing on the nose determine that?

Are you referring to the comb??? or nostril??? All chickens have a comb and nostrils. Comb development is generally faster and redder for cockerels than for pullets.

Photos 1, 3 and the bottom right corner of #4 show cockerels. The white one is a Delaware, the bottom right of the 4th photo looks like a pea comb... which none of the breeds you mention have pea combs.
