Just wanted to report to all of you who replied that my hen is doing much better now! She started to become more responsive about a couple hours later and I used a syringe to slowly give her some fluids, and when I moved her around I found an egg! I suspect she was egg bound, because she is up...

I'm pretty sure Felix is a Golden Wyandotte. Nibbles is looking like a Polish because of the puffed up feathers on the top of its head, but I'm not really sure because of the quality of the pictures.

Actually, my White Crested Polish grew waddles pretty early too and it turned out to be a hen. Sometimes it doesn't matter how old it is when it grows waddles, it usually depends on the chicken and how it behaves and is nurtured, so there is still a pretty good chance it is a pullet. :)

twinsome6, I made a new thread regarding the gender of the silkie. I think it is a cockerell though.

I have no idea. I made a thread on it. So far I think it is a cockerell
