Can anyone tell me the breed of these 3 chicks?

#1 looks like a black cochin- it looks like a roo.
#2 looks like a partridge silkie- too young for me to sex
#3 looks like a black silkie- no idea on sex either
They're super cute!!!
 
1 is a black cohin cockerel
2 is a partridge silkie to young
3 is a blue silkie to young
 
Does the darkest one and the brown ones have single comb or a walnut comb? I'm guessing the brown one is a Partridge Silkie, the Darkest one a Blue Silkie and the light blue one is a Blue Cochin.
 
Thank you everyone I can def. agree #2 and #3 are Silkies :) took some more pictures of the head on the Blue Silkie it seems like a round crest and the Partridge Silkie I can't really tell whether is single or walnut comb. #1 looks like a boy more and more each day and I'm thinking he's a frizzle Cochin due to his crazy feathers?

Took a few more pictures of them today :)

Together

#1 Frizzle Cochin?




#2 Partridge Silkie




#3 Blue Silkie
 
How adorable! I am so jealous of your little frizzle guy! Don't let DH know but we are definitely getting one of those! And your blue silkie looks a lot like mine. I love their little bunny tail butts!
 
Cute black frizzle boy! Your blue silkie is also looking like a boy to me. That's an awfully big comb for a young silkie! The partride is still too young, but I hope she's a girl!
 
Oh yes, the Cochin is definitely a frizzle, and a boy!

Yeah I know they say you can't tell with young silkies, but look at mine for pete's sake:

4 weeks:


and six weeks:



Now if little Grendel here grows up and lays me an egg, I'll eat a bowl full of chick crumbles!
