All Cochins. One smooth black cockerel, one smooth black mottled pullet, and one frizzled red pullet.
That's good to know, because there are 3 blacks, so I'll have one male, two females. I also have two red frizzles one of each sex. (I know not to breed them together.)
Next up:
Cornish I'm sure is a male

And a porcelain (?) Gamehen
Comb is light pink, but other times looks yellow. 🤞any hope?

Another gamehen or easter egger (?) with a few apricot colored spots. This one has green legs and a very small single comb.

That Cornish is certainly a cockerel.

I've never heard of a porcelain OEGB. Mayne posy updated pics of that one in a few weeks, in better lighting. Definitely looks like an OEGB though and is a pullet.

I'm inclined to say EE too. The single comb throws me off though. @EmmaRainboe thoughts?

Thank you. I really appreciate your help. This is my first time with bantams, so I have no idea whether they will mature slower than standards.
 
Pocelain OEGBs exist and I think they are offered by Ideal hatchery. I think the last picture could be a buff laced Sebright with a single comb instead of a rose comb.
That would be a fun bird to have, even if not to sop. They will just be pets, and brooders.
