We moved into our house in October. The previous owners had a chicken coop and left it here. A couple of days after moving in we realized they had left a chicken in the coop. My daughters named her Sophie so after that she was officially our pet. We thought she would need some companions, and the Easter Bunny brought the kids some baby chickens from tractor supply. The Easter bunny thought that they would all be hens, but I think the Easter bunny was mistaken. We do not know what breed any of the chicken are, and I'm pretty sure we have 3 roosters. Pease help me identify these chickens. Breed/ make or female.

This is Sophie our original Hen. I think she is a Plymouth Rock

We call her Jessie. I think she is an americauna

We have two black and one gray. Are they Cochins? And are they roosters? My girls will be devastated if Anna and Elsa are boys :)

Thanks for the help!

Sophie is a barred Plymouth Rock hen
Chelsea looks like a d'uccle pullet
Jessie is a golden Sebright. Looks like a pullet, but the males of this breed don't get the hackle and saddle feathers and I can't see the comb well enough to say for certain.
Turbo is a cute little game hen
Anna and Elsa are indeed bantam Cochin roosters, blue and black. They're quite the handsome young guys!
 
Thank you for your help! I now have 3 roosters and 4 hens. I hate to get rid of them but I don't have a choice as they will harm my hens. One if them is even aggressive toward my kids. Any recommendations for places to take the roosters?
