There is at least one girl- the one with the white spots on top of head, upper left in first pic and on left in fourth pic. She is starting to lose the barring, by next month her back will be solid colored.

Bird on right in first pic is a male- has a lot of barring.

There is at least one that is not india. More likely spalding not a green though.. on the right side in 4th pic is a spalding and the one in middle of last pic seems to have barring of a spalding. Both male and female spaldings have barring, it is harder to tell on them so just have to wait a little longer.

It will become much more clearer on all of them by next month when they go through another molt
 
In Indian Blues Males will have a burnt sienna (reddish brown) flight feathers with less spotting and females will have chocolate brown with more. You can tell on them from the time they are chicks. Other colors are harder.....
 
See 2 hens left in 4th pic , see 2 males for sure. Check the new flight feather coming in (outside) Like chickenzoo said can tell the males.

3rd pic see the flight feather redish brown, thats a male.
