Looking for Some Help with my Flock - some newbies don't look like I thought they were supposed to.

I ordered from Murray McMurray - this bunch is supposed to be a mix of Whiting True Blues and Greens. However, I'm really not sure who's who or if I possibly got some wrong breeds? And possibly a bunch of cockerels, pictures attached of those I am suspecting to be male.

Unsure on the red necked blue one and the red. There's also a Black Copper Maran (pic 1), ordered 6 and compared to the others, definitely looks like a cockerel. There's 2 chicks that look almost identical, but was only able to get pictures of the one (pic 5) and the black one in pictures 3 and 8 may be the same bird.

I ordered all females and it seems that this group ended up with a lot of males. I know the accuracy is only guaranteed 90%, but this is maybe only 80%.

Any thoughts are appreciated! Thank you!

I believe I see at least three cockerels (4 if the two blacks are different)

Pic 1, 3, 4, 5 and 7 are all cockerels. 8th does look like the same black cockerel, if not that's another one

Thank you, I was definitely afraid of being right with this group! But thankful that the two that were throwing me, are not male. 6 out of 49 feels like a lot! Especially with the price of pullets and starting an egg operation.
