Welcome to the forum.

The bird in the first photo (red and white) looks like it may be a rooster, but I can't be sure. The other two look like hens to me.
 
Looks to me like you have TWO roosters...the barred rooster appears to have awfully thick legs, and those tail feathers look pretty rooish to me. Can we have a closer shot of the barred bird? The red and white bird also appears to be a roo.

The black bird, and the brown appear to be pullets.
 
I see two hens, the all brown and the black one

Brown and whitey looks almost definatly roo-ey

Barred is rather iffy.... those legs are sooo manly! lol
