Hi, I am a young teen and absoulutely in love with my chickens! Firstly these are my new Pekin Silkie Cross chicks at a month old. Would anyone be able to tell me their gender?

Ok secondly what breed of chook are these? I have had these two for quite a while since they were a month old.

These were all bought of a farm... So have no idea what breed they are. Also have this one bantam, have no idea what breed she is.

Best photo I could get, she's still a little scared.
Lastly my two layers, one has a clipped wing, only noticed it when we bought her home.

Okay that is all my breed/gender related questions.
I have those two layers and a bantam, but only getting 1layer egg and 1 bantam egg???? How can I tell which layer is laying?
Also my little bantam roo, is well addicted to hens right now, but will he eventually calm down? He's a good rooster, and when they are out of the pen he is always keeping a eye on his girls and keeping them close, but will he calm down and become a "gentleman"???
Also a bit worried about the ginger coloured bantam
Hen. She always seems a little disclued from the other chooks besides the rooster because they were in the same flock. Whenever I put out of food, she is never eating it that much.... She kinda gets chased by the other bantam hen. Is there anyway I can get he more "included"???
She is laying now, and her eggs seem to be randomly "dropped" around the chook pen? Strange.
Sorry for rambling on for quite a while. Thanks
