I think they are Australorp on the first one, and Barred Rocks....roos or pullets?
I have 4 of the Rocks and 5 of the Austrlorps....(they better be pullets!)

I believe them to be around 4-5 weeks old
(sorry my first time posting, the pics are a bit smallish)
 
Black Australorps and Barred Rocks indeed - But it looks like you might have a cockerel in amongst your BA's. The last photo and the middle photo show a chick with a rather larger and more red colored comb coming in.
 
I think the Australorp my be pullet as mine at 5 weeks had lots bigger redder comb
this is him at 5 wks

I think 3 of your barred rocks maybe boys very light coloring
 
re looking at the 2 pic maybe boy cause feathering slower than the rest. I had one australorp that feathered slow and got really long ended up roo. He looked like a mini ostrich
