I’ve never seen a chick like that. Not sure on the breed or the possibility of it being mixed.

Based on comb coloration at that age, I’m guessing male.
 
The OP suggested in her new member intro thread a Salmon Faverolles as a possible parent to these chicks. That would certainly throw the first and third (same picture) little one into the cockerel camp and explain the fifth toe, feathered legs and cheek muffs.

The other also appears to be from the SF hen. Hard to tell with the feathering but the comb is smaller and lighter than the other chick. I'd give it a 50% chance of being a pullet! :lau

ETA: opinion on second chick

I was hatched first. An what a looker I am. I am about 3 weeks old here. Shy, run an hide under mommy at the slightest movement. I also have 5 toes an feathers on my legs like my sibling. Will I be a boy or a girl?
 
Can anyone tell me why the mommy hen keeps chasing one of the little chicks around like she is scolding it. I keep trying to get a video but as soon as I start recording it's over. She only does it with the one. The chicks are 4 weeks old. This is her first time raising chicks.
