Breed help!

We purchased these as Amber sex links/Black sex links, and I don’t think that’s what these are. Can you guys confirm or deny that?

The white gals are Blanche, Rose, Dorothy, and Sofia. Gloria is the little penguin looking gal

From what I can see, the white birds appear to be white Leghorns or White Plymouth rocks. What color are their earlobes?

The black one looks like either Black Jersey Giant or a Black Australorp.

How old are they?

agree with @Cyprus

Yeah, age would help here. The black one looks like an Australorp and the whites could be cornish cross or white rocks or maybe amber links, but amber links usually have a little pale brown or amber in their plumage.

They’re roughly 6.5 weeks! I don’t think they’re meat birds, as they’re basically fully feathered (and they’re gorgeous feathers!) and they’re roughly the same size as the black feathered gals from my understanding, they would be a lot less active and way larger by this point if they were meaties?

Here’s a top down picture to better give an idea of size and coloring.

Yes, I think you are right that they're not Cornish crosses. I think I see a pale brown tinge to the one white bird, on the back. So they could indeed be amber links. I hope so!
