What could these possibly be?

Okay, so a fellow farmer was selling some chickens, so I decided to pickup a few. First time raising anything that breathes. Anyway, I'm cluless about which breeds (and genders) these chickens are and I was wondering if I could get some help.

Nicole, a (crowing?) chicken who's been with us for about 3 months so far. Any idea on breed?

Boston, a skittish little chicken that likes to roost on high places. Unfortunately, she likes to peck at whoever she sees. (probably a cockeral as well.)

Tony, probably a cockeral considering he can be a little aggressive and his early comb. I'm assuming this one is a Black Orpington. *crosses fingers*

Fudge is on the left, right by Tony. I'm seriously hoping this is a pullet because one illegal cockeral is enough.

Here’s Muffin. (S)he’s the nicest out of all the chickens I own.

Please and thank you.
 
Yes, post some more pics on this thread in a couple of weeks. Boston looks like he has a little Polish in him.
 
Ah, okay. I'll wait awhile for the younger chickens, but is Nicole seriously too young? I'm assuming the picture's not really good, so here's a bigger (and better) one.

Tony is not a black Orpington. Wrong body shape and comb. Plus, it would be rare to find a local farmer who has Black Orpingtons anyway. The poufy headed one could have Polish or Silkie in it. I have three whose daddy was a Cochin/Silkie cross with Barred Rock mothers and they all have the pouf.
