unsure about what types of chickens I have

I thought they looked like leghorn too but I know for sure, no white eggs. The white jersey giant looks a lot like him too though and they lay brown eggs as far as I know.
 
I'll go out today and take individual pics since one of my hens arent in these pics and it might help tell who is what. You guys are extremely helpful.

I was going to ask about the egg color on that one, but you answered it already, definitely agree with claud, Cuckoo Marans.
The white and the brown one are EEs, your green eggs and brown eggs. I can't see the black one real well, but if it is all black, either Black Orpington, Black Giant or Australorp. Look at the feet and legs. Yellow legs, Orpington. Here is a post about the feet on the other two, maybe it will help.

"I'm crossing my Australorp cockerel with 3 of my Jersey Giant hens an am going to hatch chicks. I was wondering if the chicks would be 50/50? If not, is it possible for them to come out with opposite leg colors? Like Jersey Giants with pink/white feet instead of yellow, and Australorps with yellow feet instead of pink/white? I'm just wondering because I'm going to be having purebred Australorps in there too and I don't want to get them all confused. I would seperate them when they lay, but then they won't lay for me unless they're altogether. It gets...complicated."

In the third pic, the black one with the blue & white saddle looks like an Ameraucana (big cheeks, green legs). The gold & black one is definitely Ameraucana. Dark chocolate egger is not a Cuckoo Marans (they look like a Barred Rock with a rose comb). I would say the chocolate egger is a Barnevelder if it's the chicken I am looking at in the first picture - the one by the fence behind the black chicken with the pink saddle.

A Cuckoo Marans is a mottled barring - not exactly like a Barred Rock and they don't have rose combs. I have cuckoo marans and they look exactly like the chicken in question.
