breed and gender confusion - almost five weeks old

[PunkinPeep]

I have in my flock a RIR Roo, RIR hens, BO hens, and BR hens.
Numbers 1, 2, and 3 i have always assumed to be RIR, and number 4, a RIR/BO.

But today, when i was taking pictures of them, i noticed that the "RIR"s don't have bay colored eyes. I don't know what that means.

The only variables i can think of: 1) I never saw the stock that my RIR roo came from. I'm sure many would call him a production red, but i don't think he's a hybrid of anything. 2) There is a the remote possibility that a mutt rooster who used to live here had some influence. Can a chick have more than one father? Their wing patterns look rir, right? But those eyes are completely confusing me.

Also, i need to know what you think about their genders. I would like to sell these this weekend.

Chick Number ONE

Chick Number TWO

Chick Number THREE

Chick Number FOUR

Any help is very greatly appreciated.

I really can't help but I can offer a good bump.

I don't see any RIR there. I'm not sure what they are, but they don't look like RIR's.

Where did you get them?

#1 is for sure a cockeral. And I think #4 is too.

Chick 4 is probably not a RIR, the first 3 look are the exact color my RIR chicks were when they were in their scruffy stage. I'm no expert, but I'll take a shot.

Chick 1: Roo
Chick 2: Pullet
Chick 3: Pullet
Chick 4: Pullet? Not a RIR (Buff Orp maybe?)

Number 4 is a cross with a Buff Orp.

But what about the eye color of 1, 2, & 3?


Also, thanks to everyone who is responding!
