Most important thing we need to be able to see is the comb. A side view and front view of the bird's comb in good lighting is most helpful. Secondarily, feather coloration is also helpful. So I have the idea from their feather coloration that some of these are hens, but can't confirm without good, in focus pictures of their combs.

Male specific feather coloration exists, but it is not obvious in these birds, and is less common. If you see it, the bird is male, but not all males display the male specific coloration. There is a particular rusty red color over the wing bows that always indicates a male, but it may be quite subtle, or not present in some birds.
