I purchased chicks from two hatcheries last August/September. From the list of breeds I ordered, can y'all help identify the breeds of a few of my roosters. A list of the breeds I ordered to select from included below.
There are five roosters and I need to thin my herd. Knowing what breed will help.
Thank you all in advance for any insight. Happy Chicken Keeping!

Female F2 Olive Egger
Female Black Laced Red Wyandotte
Female Easter Egger
Female Dark Brahma
Blue Egger Female Surplus
Female Black Laced Silver Wyandotte
Assorted Marans
Americana
Sapphire Splash
Sapphire Gem
Assorted Colored Egg Layer

At first, for the first guy I thought sapphire gem, but those are way lighter in color, almost a lavender-ish color with barring for the roosters. So possibly an OE instead. The dark blue rooster with chocolate eyes looks like a blue jersey giant to me. The splash one doesn't seem like any on the list. Not even the splash maran, which has a bigger build and different colored legs. Possibly an OE mix? But idk for sure.

The barred rooster looks like a Cuckoo Marans, but I did not order that breed. The white rooster that is splashed with black is on the small side as are the hens (they look just like him) Thank you for your ID help! For sure the guy standing at the base of the jungle gym/pyramid thingie is the Black Copper Marans! Thank you, he fits the description perfectly.
