It's time for the next installment of Hen or Roo and what breed did I get from Atwoods?

I think they're about 8 weeks old (give or take a couple, Atwoods people know nothing about chickens, I get all my advice here from the eggsperts!!!)

This one still has no name, guess it's nameless #1

Another pic of nameless #1

Backside of Ched or Head (my 7 year old named the two black/grey ones) and the dark brown one is nameless #2

Nameless #2 (brown), nameless #1 (white - possibly silkie? has feathered feet and puffy hair on head)

Front of Ched or Head - they are definitely twins

Much better pic of nameless #2 - longest neck I've ever seen!

Left is nameless #1 -- right is Omelette - she/he is grey, not white

Nameless #3 on top of the waterer -- behind down below is #1 again and on the right down below in the front is #2 again

Here's #2 again from the front -- and ched/head hiding behind but has a good look at tail feathers
Finally we have Chuck,, the duck who thinks he/she is a chicken -- Son just had to have a duck and she lives with the chickens and they have a blast!!!
 
Number one is a Sultan. Can't tell if it is a cockerel or pullet. Number 2 is definitely a RIR cockerel. Omelet looks like an OEGB pullet. Number 3 is some generic red pullet. One of the barred Rocks is a pullet the darker one. The lighter one may be a cockerel, I can't tell with the blurry picture.

As for Chuck the duck, s/he may be old enough for the quack test. Does he quack loudly or make more of a raspy sound? Female ducks are the loud ones.
 
Thank you
here are some more pictures - the babies don't like standing still for pics unless they get on top of the waterer lol

Chuck still kinda tweets (s/he sounds like the baby buff orp that s/he is in a small run with (next to my big chicken run))

barred rock -- any idea hen or roo?

#1 still can't get him/her still

same one from above

#1 again closest to still I can get him/her -- it's the most skittish of all my chickens -- with barred rock in background

both barred rocks together - about as still as they'll be...
