Here's this pic. The grey one is the calmest out of the five. The the yellow one is 2nd calmest
 
Calmness doesn't always determine sex. I've had roosters that weren't crazy but calm.

I bought five chicks at Atwood's three days ago. First time momma hen here. I believe they are all pullets. I think I have possibly two Rhode Island Reds and one Lavender Orpington but I am not certain with the employees uncertain themselves. The other two I am definitely unsure. The black one is the youngest of the group. It has a yellow under belly, black feet, black top feathers with white under feathers. It's driving me crazy not knowing the breeds lol the yellow bird is also an unknown. Tia.

My pictures won't attach anymore. Not even to the original post.. I'm troubleshooting the issue right now.
 
The picture?
I figured it out. My Qwant browser was the problem.

The light gray/lavender chick and the black and white chick both look like cockerels. The comb looks like it's developing faster than our pullets when they were chicks.

The black on is the smallest working hard to establish itself high in the pecking order. It's the first to steal something from another chicks beak lol

Young pullets often do things such as fighting and stealing food to get higher in the pecking order. It doesn't always mean they're a cockerel, but I'm pretty sure from the way the comb looks that you have a cockerel!

Also, the chick on the left of the image you just showed looks like it could be a Buff Orpington? Just a very wild guess.
