What do you guys think? Orpington. . Or orpington mix?
 
I'd be more inclined to think Marans than Orpington, she isn't very rounded or fluffy in the bum like an Orp should be.

Or, she could simply be a mixed breed. I've got blue sex links that look pretty much like that, just lighter bodied.

Donrae could definitely be right on this bird.
 
All of my BBS orp's are big as basketballs with fluffed feathers at that age. Definitely colored right but not built wise. Donrae I think is spot on.
 
Not a Marans build either, imho, she is too lightweight and longer...Marans are more upright and heavier even at this age...she is either a mix or possibly an Andalusian as that was my first thought.
