hi guys

My name is Melissa and I am super new to chickens. I currently have 5 mixed breeds and 6 more coming mid July. The 6 new ones I know are hens are I ordered ready to lay. But my others I’m pretty lost. I was told 2 of them are Ameracauna. Since then I was told that's incorrect. The other 3 I have no bloody clue so please HELP!!
My two older ones are 8wks old. I feel the white is a rooster and the black is a hen. Please tell me your thoughts. These were the ones we were told were Ameracauna.
For the 3wk old babies I have a black with white chest and feathering on feet (looks like a mix of a penguin and a cormorant lol). The next is black with copper speckles on its chest. Also has feathering on its feet. For both of these I do not know sex. I’m curious. For the last it’s a tiny brown and white. It already has a comb (its 3wks old) so I feel it’s a Roo, but could he completely wrong. Also do not know breed. A friend hatched them but was told “barn yard mix”.
Once again sex and breeds would be AMAZING.
Thanks everyone.

First picture is a messily Barred Plymouth Rock sitting beside a cross breed. Guessing it has some Light Sussex, Columbian Plymouth Rock, or Columbian Wyandotte in it.
 
4th pic is a Black Copper Marans. 5th pic looks to be an Easter Egger. 1st pic barred bird on the left is a Barred Plymouth Rock and the bird on the right looks like a Delaware but the comb isn’t correct.

Oh wow so the one with the white belly is a black copper Maran!! Cool!!!!! And the one with the copper speckles is a Easter egger. Thank you!!!!! I keep getting barred rock for the black one so I think you are right. Do you think hens?

Yeah someone previously mentioned Columbia’s Plymouth Rock. Do you think hens or Roos?
