Are these my new babies black cheeks? And the second one from the bottom has grey cheeks?

They appear to be black fronted- I believe charcoals don't have the white bellies, even as juvs.

Last bird is a poorly coloured Mark White or a Chestnut Flanked White Cock, 2nd last bird is a Fawn Charcoal Hen. 3rd from bottom is a Grey Cock, 4th from bottom is a Fawn Cock. Top baby would be a Grey Pied and 2nd baby would be a Grey bird. Need to see on how they colour up first. As a Black front will still have a whisper of white in the tear drop and should have a solid black chest.
