Edited 06/06 to update with the general consensus for each breed!

Original intro: These are all being raised as broilers, so the IDs are just for fun. I've put my best guesses after each picture but I'm still a novice chicken enthusiast. :) These guys are from a McMurray's "all heavies" order.

Yes, all cockerels.... I believe you do have a light brahma, for the last one. Agree with @drumstick diva that the leghorn is too heavy to be a leghorn, and he has red ears. I'd say white rock. And agree that the first one is a barred rock. Dominques would have a rose comb. As for the others, I agree with your assessment, and am unsure on the all brown single comb.
 
D'oh, Rocks ARE on the McMurray's site, I had just missed it! So that makes sense - I have Barred Rocks, White Rocks, and a Partridge Rock. Thanks everyone!!
