Bantam Chicks Breed and Sex

Apparently when I bought the chicks home I said blue Wynadotte, not silver not that it makes a difference but I thought I should be fair to the farm.
They are changing so quickly especially the Pekins I can't believe how much their feathering changes everyday!
These pictures were actually taken on Wednesday and they've already changed! The Pekins have new feathers in their shoulders.

They're beautiful! Any idea what my favorite is?

This little one is so sweet he/she fell asleep in my daughter's hands, the other 3 were trying to dart away bless them but Heihei (I got the spelling wrong earlier) snuggled in.
:D I've had some real sweeties too. I have a Lavender Orpington who is so easy going. You can hold her forever, and you could even tilt her upside down and she doesn't care.
 
Updated photos, Cinders seems to be a little behind everyone else in terms of feathering.

Well they've certainly grown some more!

It looks like the gold laced Wynadotte is this breed. Maybe not a perfect example but the adult feathers coming through seem to have imply this breed. I'm also thinking this little one maybe a pullet.

The blue Wynadotte also seems to be this breed though not perfect and possibly a cockerel.

The Pekins Nugget (yellow head) and Kiev(black dot on top of her head), I now think Nugget is the boy and Kiev the girl!..


Anyone else see anything different yet?
