Junebuggena, and other experts, please weigh in.
I've raised Ameraucana and Easter Eggers. I did a last ditch hatch after I sold my "splash Ameraucana" roo. I know these are all Easter Eggers. That throws off my ability to identify genders. Rooster red shoulders always mean boys, right? I thought it was genetically impossible to get pullets with rooster red shoulder feathers. However, a couple of these splash chicks at 3 months old are small and pullet-like.

Could you post a few up close photos of the birds you are mainly concerned about? I will be easier to see all the details.
 
You need better pics. Hard to see them with wire in the way.
I see 2 Cockerel for sure. The black, white and brown ones.
 
I'm not sure any of those are good enough pictures. Now I'm trying to use my phone because my tablet shut itself off and my desktop isn't playing nice with photos. :eyeroll: sorry.
