Ok, dunno why the first two pics aren't showing. I thought I copied and pasted all the same...

Plus I couldn't get my guesses to line up with the right pic...

So:
roo
hen
??
hen
roo
hen

The first two were: ?? and hen
 
I will take the first guesses.

The first 2 pic didn't show but here is the line up for what I can see

#1 seems to looke like its going to have a rose comb which I have found to be all red but in the roo it is bigger with waddles. So I will guess that this one is a pullet. I have one that is a couple of weeks older than yours and it's comb looks like yours does now. Mine is a pullet

#2 pullet

#3 Roo maybe

#4 pullet
#5 roo
#6 hen maybe.
 
They are, to quote the owner of the chickens the eggs came from "Buff orpington and whatever else is in the coop"

I have not personally seen the parents of my chicks. Some are EE (came from a green egg), two have bantam mamas I think cause they were small round eggs and are the smallest chicks. The second smallest has feathered legs.
