Guesses on breed and gender? Black Copper Maran/Ameraucana/ or Olive Egger?

[amd87]

I purchased 5 chicks from a friend. I am fairly certain that 3 of them are CLB(2 pullets and 1 cockerel if I had to guess). However, the black chicks she said could be BCM, Ameraucana, or Olive Egger. Would anyone like to weigh in on what they think these two are? And just for fun, do you have a guess on gender? (First picture is the day I got them at almost a week old. The next picture is now at almost 3 weeks. The black on in the front in the second picture is probably half the size of the one behind it)

***EDIT*** I added several more pictures in a comment below!

My guess is both BCMs. They both have single combs, and Ameraucauna and Olive Eggers don’t usually have single, although olive Eggers can have single.

Thank you! I was told BCMs have feathered feet, and these don't have any feathers on their feet. These don't have feathered feet, but maybe that comes later?

Hmm, I think they’re supposed to have feathered feet; I didn’t think to check. Im changing my guess to olive egger.

May have to wait to see until they lay!
The CCLB I’m seeing in the back looks possibly male too. If you want gender guesses, I’d love to see head-on photos of them!

Oh! Even with the strips?!

I was just basing that off the light pattern compared to the pullet I see behind/below it. Really depends on what its face looks like.

Ohh, okay! I am going to post pictures of each here.

#1CLB(I'm assuming cockerel)

#2 (CLB I thought pullet because of strips, but feather coloring is light)

#3(CLB definitely a pullet)

#4(mystery breed and gender haha)

#5(mystery breed/gender)

Hope those help!

I’d say I was incorrect and the second CCLB is likely female. The first black chick looks male. So 2 boys, 3 girls.

What makes the first black one look male? (Not disagreeing at all, just not knowledgeable in knowing the differences and trying to learn!)
