Best guess i got was 1 that is maybe silver tuxedo and 3 that are pharaoh, but honestly i have no idea and would appreciate any help! These are the only ones that actually hatvhed so just 10 of them.

How will i know the other half +/- ??? When they crow or lay an egg?
Can you tell by vent size at this age? I noticed one had a tiny vent that i thought may be male but then another had a really wide vent

With practice can vent sex at 5ish weeks sometimes you’ll get early crowers but eggs are sometimes delayed.

Juju is falb fee

razzle, and Buttons are pharaoh,

Twizzler looks like a rosetta that leans toward pharaoh, so you’ll see some wild markings like the back stripes, may also have fee hard to tell with the lighting.

Kinder is red range messy tuxedo, and looking at the tones of red, may have silver (SSC) also.

Snickers is egyptian

Nougat is autumn amber but favors wild pattern, just like twizzler youll see some wild showing itself, especially the back stripes.

Gumdrop and KitKat are silver wild pattern, KitKat has fee.

Goober is hard with the pic quality, if it has any black at all, it is Italian, if there’s no black, just browns and reds, it’s autumn amber.

For gender, get photos of them facing the camera, so we can see their chests.
