I am going to put in my experience here, for what its worth, but I hatch out a chick that looked just like the first picture, she was a buff cochin x with a black-tailed buff jap.

the first little hen, except for the feathered legs, looks alot like a wheaten colored OEG bantam. im thinking maybe cochin/oeg cross? the third pi is definitely a roo though. here's a wheaten oe hen for comparison

if its a rooster....why doesnt he roost like my other one?

he clucks

Roosters will both cluck and crow, and make many other noises. Not to mention when they get in the nest boxes and make happy little broody hen noises!

Roosters are so cute!

My ideas on your chickens.

The first pic:
A Buff Black Tailed Japanese Bantam cross...probably with a cochin. I had one that looked just like that & that is what the cross was.

Second pic:
EE hen

Third pic:
An Old English Standard Game Rooster.

Are the last 2 pics Standard or Bantam?

These 2 are harder.
Red Pyle or Leghorn crosses maybe. I'm only guessing.
The body type seems leghorn, color looks Red Pyle.
