Any help would be appreciated.
 
Ugh I was thinking Pascal and Opie might be but I was hoping the two BO's were girls

The light/angle for BO #2 mean I can't see enough to take a guess. I would say #1 is a boy, Opal is likely an Opie and Pascal looks rather boyish.
 
Pascal is for sure a rooster (Easter Eggers can be sexed by color).

Could you get a few more pics of both Buff Orpingtons and Opie? Nice clear profile pics would be great (like the pic you did of Pascal). I might change my mind on their genders...

Those three don't like to stand still lol.
 
Oh dear. That is for sure a lot of pink comb for being only 6 weeks old. I would say all boys....wish I could give you a different answer.

Bummer can't do 4 more roos and they are way too nice to eat lol anyone need some roos?
 
I'm not sure on Duckie - the other 3 are most likely roos, but Duckie doesn't have any wattles yet and looks more like a pullet to me. Here's what my roos looked like at 7-8 weeks - watch for those wattles.
