Well here are the mixed C&S I started in March. For slow growing plants they change a lot in their first six months.

Seedlings after pricking out in June:

And today starting to look crowded:

Any IDs or advice again would be much appreciated.

Thanks

You have 7 Astrophytums in the mix, one of them is A. asterias (second from top right). There is one that appears to be an Oreocereus (second row from bottom, second from left). Two Agaves on the left column and maybe an Echinocactus grusonii on the bottom row left of middle. The one top row second from left may be a Ferocactus. The species ID will have to wait until they get older. Some of the rest appear to be Mammillarias.

I think there is no Oreocereus on the picture (Mammillaria bocasana?), and I agree to wait.
The Oreocereus seedling doesn't seems like an Oreocereus (no hair).
