Breed? Also an added what gender

For some reason it wouldnt let me type. It really isnt that hard to tell the males and females apart. You just have to know what you are looking for and in most varieties the males look a lot different than the females. For example silver duckwings
cockerel


Pullet
 
Whatever age these guys are they all look the same unlike other breeds I have that crowed in the past, I could easily tell. These do not have combs just a red pigmentation to the skin. If they didn't all look the same it wouldn't be so hard.
 
I picked up theses guys in a swap and have absolutely no clue what breed or what age they are. Any suggestions? One is already crowing ( i know age is hard to tell) I can tell you I have Seabrights that I raise and these new guys are much smaller. I am just inquiring on the 3 dark chickens.
In the first picture, the dark blue OEGB on the very left looks to have a darker comb and some hackle feathers. That one might be a male. Also in the first picture, the mille fleur Cochin on the left in the back is a male.
 
The cochins I know, just inquiring on the 3 small dark chickens. Tonight, the one in the first picture on the right made a strange almost crow-like noise.
Does anyone know how old they look/may be? Anything good about this breed from your experience?
 
They look to be about 3-4 months old. OEGB's mature pretty quickly, so the one making odd sounds might be a maturing rooster.
