Thanks for the help everyone. Sounds like mixed reviews so far though.
I was under the impression that by calling it chicken you meant girl and rooster meant boy...I guess it makes sense that they are all chickens

I was clear, though that we wanted egg-laying ladies!

HeChicken: here are the pics you thought would be helpful,

This is a closer pic of the Wyandotte..isn't that a rose comb?? I don't think it was that visible in the first pic

head shot of my EE's

The lady we bought them from (2 weeks ago) said that the EE's were 2 weeks old. When we asked about the RIR's and Wyandottes she didn't seem sure and said oh..5 or 6 weeks I think. So I could be off a week or so on their ages. I looked close and don't see ANY sign of wattle on any of them except the one RIR with the larger comb I took a pic

Anybody else? it seems I have mixed responses. Maybe it is too soon to tell for sure. Will I have problems if I add some new pullets to the mix?
 
it looks to me like the wyandotte (assuming its actually a wyandotte, i just got my first chicks of that breed so dont know what they look like immature) has a single comb, which is not uncommon (though they should have rose combs) and is a male. it also looks like one RIR is a male, i think the rest are females. just my best guess at this stage.
 
Somehow you just know already...but you need to ask just in case you might be wrong.

I have two "pullets" that I'm pretty sure are cockerels but I will be posting pics again in another
week just to be sure.

Are you planning on keeping any?
