What the heck Hatch? Updated Photos!

My thoughts and guesses
1-7 I think are Russian Orloffs no clue on Gender
14 Barred Rock Cockrel
15 Liege no clue on Gender
17&18 Cochin no clue on Gender
23 Liege no clue on Gender

I agree with those, except that I didn't know what the Liege were supposed to look like :)

If 15 and 23 are Liege, then I'm guessing 20 is also a Liege, and maybe 9 and 19 as well.

8, 12, 21 I think are Black Copper Marans (the French form with lightly feathered legs), or else they are probably mixed breeds.

I think 17, 24, and 25 are Cochins. 10 and 18 might also be Cochins--they have leg feathers, but not as many, and I don't know what amount is actually normal for Cochins.

13 I'm pretty sure is a male, (because of the appearance of the barring). He might be a Cream Legbar. If I'm wrong on the gender, please tell me when you figure it out-- I'm still learning about sexing barred birds.

11, 16, and 22 I think must be mixed-breeds, because they don't match anything else on the list you gave a few posts ago. (Possibility of Easter Egger or Prairie Bluebell Egger, because those do not have a standardized appearance. But I would expect those to have pea combs, and all three of these chicks appear to have single combs.)

I'm not seeing any that I think would be Svart Hona. I had wondered about 23, but if you think it's Liege, then I will assume you are right. Seeing them in person tends to make for better guesses than looking at pictures on the internet :)
 
Actually after review 23 is the Svart Hona. The only reason I know there is at least one is the eggs were marked and one Svart Hona egg shell was empty lol
 
I remember you said 6 mixed breed.
Do you know how many hatched for any of the other breeds?
I know that 7 of my 12 Orloffs hatched, I know that at least 2 are Cochin and 2 are Black Copper Maran, one Cream Legbar, One Barred Rock and at least one Easter Egger. Some of them were not marked so I couldn't keep track.
