What are the breeds of my little ones?

[murray101009]

I have 8 chicks and 6 are maybe... probably.... most likely cockerels lol. Im still trying to hold on to a little hope that somehow they all just developed too early lol. Im also suspecting I have a 7th that is a cockerel as well. Anyway I have to find these boys a home before they possibly turn on me. I also bought some more chicks because I have to let these go. My favorite tries to peck me now if I get too close to his friends. I'd hate to see what happens when those hormones start surging. What breed do yall think they are? They all range between 2 to 3 months. I'm posting all 8 because majority aren't what I was told they were lol. I'm interested in your thoughts.

3 and five look like the only pullets. The black ones could be Australorps. How many roosters?!

7 is a barred rock. I agree, 3&5 look like pullets

1. Marans cockerel
2. RIR cockerel
3. possibly Jersey Giant pullet (are her foot soles really yellow?)
4. possibly Jersey Giant cockerel (same as above?)
5. pullet, any idea what hatchery?
6. cockerel, maybe olive egger or production blue hybrid
7. barred Rock cockerel
8. going by build maybe Welsummer or partridge Rock cockerel, or brown Leghorn if the earlobes are white

PR, RIR, Austrlorp, those are what they look like, not sure on last pic. The gray one could be an Olive Egged.

We have 6 cockerels (1,2,4,6,7 and 8), 3 looks like a pullet but can hold her own with the cockerels so I don't know, and 5 we know is a pullet she is usually being protected by someone at all times.

I figured with the comb and pattern but when we got her they told us Dominique. When I saw the comb of the Dominique and I think the legs I knew that wasn't right.

Three and five are definitely pullets.
I was thinking JG or Australorp for the black ones. But they seem to have a green sheen, where Jersey Gs are just puffy.

3. soles are very yellow
4. soles are more tan/pink
5. Someone we know went and picked them up locally from the person that gives them their birds. They gave us the "pullets" they had left. Only one we know they got right was the Rhode Island Red but it ended up being a cockerel and not a pullet like they said.
