These ones we were told look like red sexlinks as chicks but one looks very different that the other two...

The last one does have the coloring of a Buff Orpington. Right color legs, right color beak... Is she noisy, but super sweet? If so... definitely a Buff Orp!
 
ranny looks like she could be a frank based on that pic looks like a much wider comb than the other two light brahmas.... maybe you will have a breeding trio!
 
I am going to be super bummed out if Franny is a roo.....that chick is the sweetest one of the bunch!
 
Unfortunately if Lucy and Calloway are sex-links, then they are more than likely roosters. Calloway MIGHT be a hen but Lucy is definitely a roo based on the coloration. Guess you could call him Lucifer, Lucian, Luther, or Luke

The last one does look like a BO. And the first three are Buff Brahmas like you guessed

lucy is the only one i figured to be a roo, based on attitude.....major butthead to the other sexlink......so i was preparing myself for that....
 
Honestly I don't see any roos. And Lucy (and Calloway) is a red sex link (Golden Comet) and Sunny looks like a BO! (Buff Orpington)

As far as others claiming the Franny is a roo because of the comb, judging by the title I would assume that these are hatchery chicks so they will all vary slightly from the "standard".
