Hope this might help. I think your first one could be a Silver Duckwing Araucana mix. 

 

It's the shape that makes the breed, and the color that makes the variety.

The first one looks just like the coloring I got with a wheaten Ameraucana mom and a blue Am dad. Mine are Ameraucanas, not Araucanas, but the coloring should be the same. The 2nd one looks wheaten to me, not a mix at all, he just has some red on his legs that shouldn't be there.

Or maybe black breasted red. I have a hard time telling the difference sometimes. I guess wheaten has more of a gold color in teh hackles, but it's hard for me to tell in pics.
