I'm guessing all of these are cockerels except the black and white chicken and one or two of the naked necks. (The white one is half leghorn so has a huge comb - but also green feet and five toes!) What do ya'll think?

Cockerel, cockerel, pullet, pullet, pullet, cockerel, cockerel, pullet, pullet

I think the 4 and 5th pic are of the same chicken but I put pullet for both anyway.
 
Thanks everyone for your responses! I appreciate it! I've been watching them and going back and forth on gender since they were a couple weeks old so it is really helpful to get some fresh eyes. :) I think I have 2-3 pullets here too
 
Thanks again everyone for your responses. They were so helpful! Ok so these are the only two I am still waffling on. I think one boy and one girl. They are now 2.5 months old. I'm thinking the all black one below is a rooster because of the curvy tail feather and bolder attitude but the comb is still not super big or red (maybe because it is mixed with easter egger and other breeds...?) I'll do another post below for the one I think is a hen to avoid confusion since they are very similar in appearance

This one has some brown lacing on her feathers and seems like it has a hen shaped body and a very shy mild temperament (the other one is bolder). I love the crest and cheek poofs - hopefully she will lay a colored egg due to her easter egger heritage!
