We have 10 - 2 Week old chicks that we are trying to find out both breed and sex. Their breeds is the most important right now and if you wanna take a guess at the sex, please do so.

little early for sexing, but it looks like you have a ton of easter eggers/mixes there. Did you buy them or hatch them?
 
I would just ask the people where the eggs came from what breeds they have. If they have a lot, you will just have to make educated guesses by how they look.

You will most likely get some green eggs if they are EE's.

As an aside, the surface in those last pics looks like wood or laminate? Any slippery surface like that can cause what is called Spraddle. The chicks legs go out and they can not walk. You always want to provide them traction, I like at least an inch or 2 of bedding that they can not scratch away.

I have asked and they told me that they have many different breeds, so I guess the educated guess will be in order here. The only thing is, I don't know enough about the different breeds.

Yeah, that is laminate floor and they are not on it all the time, just when my son lets them out for 'playtime' which only lasts about 10 minutes if that. Then they go back in thier crate that does have pine shavings in it.
