I got these girls in an egg layer mix from McMurray Hatchery. I think I have it narrowed down, but I would like some second opinions.

Edit: there are actually photos of four chicks. I decided to add a pic of two more.

Buffish chick appears to be a Golden Sex Link/Golden Comet. Black chick with white belly looks like a Black Australorp. Brown chick is an Easter Egger. Black/white chick with white dot on its head is a Plymouth Barred Rock. Congrats! Adorable chicks!
Thank you! Those are my guesses, too. Thank you so much for the compliment. I’m really excited for this group of chicks. The only breed that I’ve had before is the barred rock, so the others will be great additions to my flock.
 
I agree with all these except the black one, I think it may be a Black Sex Link pullet. They are most definitely adorable!!!

I did notice yellow around the black chicks toes which could mean it's a Black Jersey Giant, yes. But Black Sex Links' legs typically aren't that dark and have much more yellow skin visible under the dark wash. We need pictures of the bottoms of its feet to confirm:
Jersey Giant: yellow feet bottoms
Black Australorp: pinkish, gray feet bottoms
