Orpington (ish) and Ameraucana Gender check

[Snapnzap]

All of the buff (lol and red) were sold as orpingtons...obviously their parentage is in question. They are all so different I am having trouble guessing their genders. I think the Ameraucanas are all boys but maybe one of you will see something different (would be nice but I am not holding my breath) They are all around 8-10 weeks. I know I should just be patient and wait for some crowing but it appears I am not the only one who finds that difficult

Thanks for any help!

1. Smallest. Has yellow legs.

2. Clean white legs...my only true orpington?

3. Crabby

4.Small feathers on white legs. Big and Fluffy.

5. Has yellow/green legs and some laced feathers around neck and tail.

6. Blue or splash?

7.

8.Has a few barred feathers.

I can't help out with the Orpingtons, but all the Ameraucanas look like cockerels.

2,3,4 look like roos.

Ugh...that is a lot of Roosters. I was thinking that was the case...really the one I had the most doubts about is number 2 because it doesn't act bossy like the rest of them.

Yeah...2 and 4 are both "lap chickens" and my favorites but I already have an Ameraucana rooster whom I doubt will tolerate the competition.
