The one in the first picture that is next to the feeder seems to have a pretty red and big comb for seven weeks, so I'd think cockerel. Other than that, I'm not certain on any others.

Yes up until the last 2 days they all have looked exactly the same and have not shown any signs of being a crockrel but now 2 maybe 3 of the reds now have bigger combs and a little redder so im not sure if that is just normal for them or if that means I have at least 2 crockrels. I can tell the black one and the white one are showing they are pullets and 1 of the reds has a small pale comb but the others are so hard.
 
Any others with combs like that are probably cockerels. However, I've had pullets sprout a comb I've questioned. And I've had cockerels hide until the saddle feathers come in well (12ish weeks).


Ok thank you I was hoping to have all hens but of course that's how it happens. I will continue to keep my eyes on them
