can anyone tell me what breed my hen is?

I think the Barred Rock looks like a cockerel.

Silver Laced Wyandotte image from Murray McMurray, note the white patches on the shoulders of the rooster?

All males

Darn! The barred rock and wyandotte were sold to me as hens :-(

The silver wyandotte is surprisingly maternal lol he keeps track of my littlest chickens, about a month younger than him.

If they were sold to you as pullets you should contact the person you bought them from and have them set it right

Do you have a better picture of the barred rock? The other 2 are definitely cockerels but I'm not 100% sure of the rock with it being slightly obscured.

The coloring says male since it is more white than black.

I agree that the colouring suggests male but personally I wouldn't base my decision solely on that, as there is a lot of variation, depending on quality of breeding.
I just wondered if the OP had a better photo so that we could see the barred rock more clearly, since it is one of the chickens that was sold as a hen.

It's always best to be sure you are right before you complain about something, in my opinion.

I didn't mean to challenge your knowledge or judgement, just saying it's not a clear shot to make a judgement on.

Well, I have two barred rock hens and that one looks just like mine?
I know they're hens - one is laying every day.
