Can you help me with breed and sex? I am new to raising chickens.

picture 1 looks like a Rhode Island Red or ISA picture 2 looks like a buff Orpington and picture 3 could either be a barred rock or a dominiquer

Hoping for 1 or two cockerels in our bunch and I'm 95% sure that these two are! My first round of chicks and I've had one of them figured since he was a week and a bit old, so I'm pretty excited that I could figure it out on my own so quickly(If I have! haha). Just wanted to see the thoughts? These two even have different voices than the rest.... They will be 4 weeks old tomorrow, so I hope it's close enough and I'm not a jerk in posting early shots.

The Columbian Rock: Arooba. and the Barred Rock: Jerk Chicken.

Yup, those two look like cockerels.

How old? It looks like a RIR pullet, I'll need a better picture to be sure but it looks like it doesn't have hackle feathers/saddle feathers, or an over large comb.
