Rescue Chickens!

I might be taking these two chickens from the local animal shelter. I've identified one as a Black Sumatra, but I can't tell what the other one is. Here are a couple of pix. Holy smokes, the pictures come out huge. Sorry. Can anyone help me identify the breed of the little white one with a brownish, lacey back?

 

Two girls, I hope..

 

Whitey

 

She's little, too... maybe a bantam? I'm really new to all this. Anyway, if you could help, I'd appreciate it. And if you have any experience with a Black Sumatra, let me know what you think! Thanks!

If you were plowing a field, which one would you use? Two strong oxen or 1,000 chickens??

I'd say columbian wyandotte, hatchery quality, because of the single comb.
