I got a bunch of feather-footed chicks and clean legged, but I don't know what kinds they are, any idea?

In your first pic, the third chick (with the spot on its head) is a barred rock. That's all I know! Wish I had a barred rock...they are wonderful clucks.

I don't think it is a barred rock, the wings are growing out and they are all black, no barring...
 
The one could still be a BR, and you just can't see the barring in the feathers yet... how old are they? And I'm thinking the BR (if it is a BR) would be a female, based on the small white spot and dark black down.

Looks like a possible RIR in the last pic, the reddish chick in the back. There is a buff cochin, but I'm not sure what color the other cochins are. My only personal experience with cochins is blue, and they weren't colored quite like that.

As far as the rusty colored ones - all I can do is guess. Speckled sussex or partridge rock? I don't really have a clue...
