Any guess on the breeds of my chicks?

I'd say that the yellow chicks definitely don't have a single comb but I'm not really seeing a whole lot of difference between their combs and those on the Wyandotte chicks. I'm extremely new at this though so I'm probably just missing the subtle differences since they are only a few days old and most reference pictures online are of older birds.

Really appreciate everyone's thoughts and comments! Definitely learning as I go.
 
So my girls are about 6 months old now and I figured it was time of an update. All in all I think the information I got here was fairly accurate! Although I do think one of my 'girls' might be needing renamed. Total novice here, but Ive got a feeling I may have cockerel. Its the very last one that I am not sure of gender or breed....

Lucy: 20180521_173349.jpg
Onyx: 20180521_173213.jpg
And this is the one I have doubts about,

Rook I think is a female, although the large comb and wattles make me think possibly otherwise, however it does have the mainly grey barring(It's pretty hard to explain, so I'll just post a picture)

(this is a good one for comparing feathering)

Dolly is 100% hen

Pheonix, I think may be a rooster, I'm assuming that he(?) is a GLW like Oynx, so comparing the two makes me think rooster, just looking at the comb and wattles.

Lucy is a hen.

Dixie, looks to me like a Production Red or a Gingernut Ranger. No comment on gender.
(Some pics of Production Reds and Gingernut Rangers so you can compare)

ALL pullets. Cockerels would be much more developed by now. Phoenix and Onyx are Golden Laced Wyandottes, Dolly and Lucy are Light Brahmas and Rook is a Barred Rock. No clue on Dixie with that huge rose comb.
