I'm new to chickens.. breed/gender help please!

Ok, sorry for the delay.
Let them out for the first time this evening so took the opportunity to get some full body shots. Also spoke with the teacher whose class they were in, they were 10 weeks old on Wednesday {which would make them 10 and 1/2 today} and they were a mixture of different colour eggs so will be different breeds.
Ok, so here goes:
Chicken 1:

Sorry about the numbering, my husband thinks we shouldn't name them until we know which ones are staying and which are going! Although I have named number 6 Henrietta :)
As I think I mentioned previously, my current guesses going purely on comb and wattle size are that chickens 2 and 4 are boys. But as I've learnt, that doesn't necessarily mean anything. Chicken 1 does have spur buds I think, haven't checked the rest. But that also doesn't necessarily mean anything. Chicken 5 is definitely smaller than the rest, so I guess she's a girl but again, that could just be breed I suppose.
So, any guesses on the gender of these guys/gals would be greatly appreciated!
 
I think...
#1- Don't know....Something Black gender? (cockerel)
#2- looks like a Coronation Sussex cockerel
#3- looks like a Coronation Sussex pullet
#4- Maybe Barnevelder, Partridge Plymouth Rock cockerel
#5- ? White (so many white chickens) gender? (pullet)
#6- ?( maybe Orpington) Splash gender? (pullet)
 
Chicken 1- I think black austrolope. Pullet? No, roo. No, pullet. No, roo. No pullet. I have no idea...medium comb, feathers a little pointed in the back...hmm...
Chicken 2- Roo, don't know breed.
Chicken 3- Eggs! (pullet)
Chicken 4- Roo
Chicken 5- White Leghorn, pullet.
Chicken 6- Don't worry, she's definitally a pullet. Maybe a Lavender Orpington?
