I'm curious about what my two 20 week old bantam girls are. Any idea?

Thank you! :)
our Japanese bantam just began laying. We have 3 tiny eggs so far. We decided to wait until we have a dozen, then make an omelete or scrambled eggs. :)
Thanks for the reply! About 3 minutes after I posted this thread I went out back and found her on the patio. I checked the nesting box and sure enough, another little egg! She's layed two eggs in three days, so I don't think she's eggbound, I just think she's confused about what the heck is...
Vivian, our Japanese Bantam is 20 weeks old and just produced her first egg two days ago. I can tell she's working on laying another one today and she seems so stressed out! She's pacing back and forth, in and out of the coop and nesting box, flying on top of the coop (something she never does)...
Our babies are 7 weeks old now. We have 3 bantams and one standard from Ideal. We know that one of our bantams is definitely a cockerel. I'm hoping that the other 3 are pullets. Can anyone tell me if I'm right? Any breed guesses are welcome too! :)
