Pics 1 & 2 look like cockrals to me, cos their combs have already made an appearance

Your LS look like pullets, notice the lack of combs.

the LS are bantams, they do have little combs but not shown up on the pics really.

We're hoping the more gingery Maran is a cock, making the other three girls. He's known as "Oddbod" cos he's totally different to all the others, and came out the shell yellow, like the sussex, but has grown up like a maran!
