Could you get head on pics of the combs? I'm definitely not a silkie expert, so @PioneerChicks may be of more use to you, but I think that the top white one is a girl (the one whose pic is under the black one) otherwise I have no idea.

We think the top black a roo
The brown and white on the second pic girls and the bottom white one roo one roo . Xx

I don’t actually see any obvious boys rn.

I am not seeing any obvious cockerels. But as you said silkies can be hard. The one on the bottom I am slightly suspicious of, but not enough to scream cockerel just yet.

You could sit quietly and talk to them. Ask them if they are a rooster or a hen. If they act insulted, then they are probably a rooster!
