I think (and I'm not an expert at all, so kinda take this with a grain of salt) that the second and third ones might be bourbon reds. The first one looks like some royal palms I just hatched. And the fourth looks like a artisan gold to me.

I could be totally wrong about some of those. I haven't hatched many poults and haven't researched them as much as I have chickens.

The fourth one may be a black poult. Artisan Gold is just a brand name for a black turkey.

The first one may be a white poult but Royal palms start out as white and develop their black markings later.

Number two and number 3 look like they may have the brown (e) gene and do not look like Bourbon Reds to me.

If the OP knows the source of these turkeys, they should get the best IDs from the source.
 
Third is probably a Rusty Slate. Looks just like mine did as a poult.

4th could be either black or rusty black

Lighter striped poult near hand in last photo may be red bronze

Haha, OP please listen to this person and not me. Like I said, I'm no expert on turkeys.
