Help!!

Hello everyone!
I'm new to the group. I'm also a newbie with my chickens but I love the lil cluckers! So, I purchased 6 laying hens from Tractor Supply on April 8th, 3 white Leghorns and 3 Rhode Island Reds as peeps. Well, I know at least 1 if not all of my Reds are Roos! But I'm holding on to the hope that good ole Chicken Nugget is a hen! It's a sweet bird! I'm also a little concerned about one of my leghorns being a roo as well? Idk if anyone can tell by the pic?

All three RIRs are cockerels.

All your RIR are roosters.

I can't see real good but if there is green showing on the rir's tail, it's a roo

All cockerels

looking closer I agree with everyone else. Hackle feathers.

Your RIR are all male, and your "Leghorn" isn't a Leghorn (though it looks female). Can you post pictures of those?

Well, I guess I won't be looking for brown eggs! And I can expect to keep being attacked by Pecker Head, named because she, now he, pecked everyone, and find the rest of my Reds a good home! I'll have to take a better pic of my leghorn tomorrow. If 4 out of my 6 hens are roosters I'm going to find the person who sexes these for a living and make him a hen lol!! That isn't 10%

From my experiences Tractor supply seems heavy on the roosters, one reason I don't buy their birds.
