Can you number the chicks, the picture order it's a little confusing?

It's too early for most of them, with a few exceptions.

Picture #2, the red chick with the honking red pea comb, is a cockerel for sure.

The silvery chick in picture 9 is a pullet.

The bird in picture 10 is a cockerel-- not sure if it is the same bird as picture 2 or not.

The rest are wait and see. I'd give it another couple of weeks at least before re-evaluating.

I edited the post and probably changed the order..but I know which ones you mean there is 2 chicks that look almost exactly the same, easter egger cockerls.
 
They are almost 8 weeks old now. Any guess on these two? The lighter one with black spots is half polish half huaden. The other is pure polish.
