Top one looks like our silver laced Wyandottes. They're great birds.

The first one is a Wyandotte, and the other ones are maybe Golden Comets?

The top bird is a Silver Laced Wyandotte and the others are all Red Sex Link hens. Red Sex Links are produced by crossing a red gene rooster with a silver gene hen and are marketed by hatcheries under a lot of different labels including Golden Comet, Red Star, Golden Sex Link, Gold Star, Brown Sex Link, Golden Buff, Cinnamon Queen, Bovans Brown, Hubbard Golden Comet, Isa Brown, Shaver Brown, Babcock Brown, Warrens, Isa Brown, HyLine Brown, Gold Lines, Lohmans Brown, Red Shaver, Brown Shaver, Bovans Goldline, etc. The only difference between these labels is which silver gene hen was used in the cross (RIW, WPR, SLW, LS, Delaware), but no matter which silver gene hen was involved or what labels they were marketed under, all Red Sex Links are egg laying machines, outlaying either parent breed. It's one of the interesting quirks of hybridization.

The first bird is a Silver Laced Wyandotte. The other birds are Red Sex-links (hybrids sold under many names, including Red Star, Golden Comet, etc.).
