Is this rooster a Golden Nugget or something else?

We were given 2 females and a male from an employee of my husband's. The man and his girlfriend were breaking up and had no where for the "children" to go so we took them in. The girls are definitely mixes. The smallest looks like a Bantam Barred Rock but she has a few feathers on her feet. The other girl is a beautiful black that has a sheen to the feathers and her feet are fully feathered. She has a very round body. I'm not as worried about what they are but I am interested in what breed the rooster is. He is a beautiful golden yellow and he is HUGE compared to all my other chickens, male and female. He is segregated in a large dog kennel right now so he doesn't kill my other roosters. He is almost double the size of my other roosters, and none of my flock is Bantam except the two I described above. I will try to get pictures of the new girls tomorrow. Any help is greatly appreciated.





 
Thank you everyone. I'm so happy to have a name to put to him. I will get pictures of the girls to see what you all think of them.
 
First Pic, Buff Orpington
Second Pic, Hatchery Barred Cochin (looks to have feathered feet if not then a Commercial/ hatchery barred rock)
Third Pic, Looks to be a Hatchery Cochin.
