Need help, what breed!

Darn. The only straight runs at the feed store are normally the bantams. All of the other breeds are supposed to be hens. I live in the city ( til next year ) so it’s difficult to have a rooster here. My neighbor has one but I know I wouldn’t get away with it, haha.
I guess we will have to see.
Thank you all so much for the help! I’m so glad I joined this community.
Now I’m worried a few of my other chicks are going to be cockerels as well. I’m a newbie at this but learning as much as I can, this is a whole new world to me and I love it!! But my barred rocks have very prominent crests as well.
 
Sorry everyone one more! They didn’t even tell me what breed this is.

Out of the breeds you listed, I'd guess the orangey one is some sort of bantam mix (a few people mentioned frizzle silkie- I've never had silkies, so I can't weigh in, but that could well be it.)

The white bird would have to either be some sort of ameracauna or a gold sex link rooster, which is my guess just based off the prominent comb, light down, and white feathers (although I can't imagine why your feed store would sell sex-link roosters?) However, as neither of these seem particularly likely, it's probably a mislabeled leghorn or some sort of white bird- leghorn, at least where I'm at, would be the most likely.

I'm interested to see how they mature. Best of luck finding out their breeds- I'd love to hear some more other opinions.
I wish I could remember what other breeds they had that day. I do remember they didn’t have any leghorns though as my neighbor has leghorns and we didn’t want to get any of the breed.
However as soon as my neighbors saw it they said it was a leghorns too!
