I have a couple of chickens I’m not sure if they are boys or girls, they are about 6 months old and non of them are crowing or laying. I know I will know soon if they crow but I’m inpatient. Also does anyone know what breed the first 2 are?

I can't help with the breeds, but the picture below may help you figure out if they are pullets or cockerels. Just look at each chicken's saddle feathers!

Based on color sexing the 3 one is a cockerel EE but the rest are pullets.
 
Looks like the EE with the red shoulders has saddle hackles forming in the top view so I’m thinking cockerel. The others make me think pullets.
