Mix up at the farm

[FiedlerFamChicks]

We hatched chicks for the first time and these cuties were labeled as olive eggers. I later learned that some of the eggs had been mixed up before labeling. I am wondering if anyone knows what they are and if they are male or female?

Hi! The only breed I recognize is that big white silkie in the background of the last picture. I think he's a boy and the rest are pullets though!

Yes! That one we know is a silkie and are just learning that he's a boy.

Do you know what breeds they have at the farm? That might help narrow it down.

The light one with dark wings has feathered legs so maybe a Marans mix.

Olive eggers, Easter eggers, copper layers, production red, production white, brahama, cochin.

Hmm, if any of them were brahma or cochin I would expect more heavily feathered legs (although I've never had a feather legged bird before so I may not be accurately gaging how feathered their legs are). My guess is they are either Olive Eggers or Easter Eggers.

Here are updated photos. I'm wondering if everyone still thinks that I have hens and a silkie roo.
