I like both your males.
The RH-WB-YB is my favorite and the BH-WB-BB is a close second.

Is the RH-PB-YB hen split for WB? Then you could get RH-WB-YB chicks. :D
What is the breast color of the GB hen, and is she split for BB? ...BB chicks :D

BTW, I am jealous of you.
You have the hen that I would like. BH-PB/WB-GB/BB. Well except for the PB part, but the /WB is important. This will give you both the M and F off spring that I am targeting BH-WB-BB.
My hen is RH/OH-WB-GB/BB, so my BB males will be RH-WB-BB and the hens will be BH-WB-BB. Close but only one is the target colors.

To bad you were not closer, then we can trade off springs.
