Hello! I would love some opinions on these 3 week old "Assorted Bantams" I picked up at my local feed store. Any idea of breed or sex? Thanks!

Also, the first one almost positively a cockerel because of how developed the comb is. Golden Sebright pullets will have black sometimes yellowish combs, and don't pink for a while. My 8 week Sebright pullet doesn't have as much comb development as that one, which is mainly why I think cockerel.
The second one I would need to see the comb to tell.
As with the 3rd one, I don't know the breed so I wouldn't be able to make an educated guess on gender.
The porcelain d'uccle looks like a pullet..so far.. But keep an eye out for the comb starting to pink. I can't tell very well by the picture but if it doesn't have any pink by the next week or so I would lean toward pullet.

^ one of my d'uccle pullets at 4 weeks.
 
Thanks so much for your response! I thought the first two were different breeds because their combs are so different. Here is chick #2 up close.

Some sebrights have straight combs, a couple of mine do, but that just means they're mixed. :)
The 2nd one looks like a pullet so far but just keep an eye out for pink in the next week. Gla I could help!
