I have a second one looks almost like this one but seems to have a dark lacing on the feathers were this one is not so much.

Does the first one have a single comb? 

 

#2 is a Silver Laced Wyandotte.

 

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

I dont think orpington just because of body type... I could be wrong though :/

It does not have the white ear lobes so I don't think it is an Andalusian. I tend to agree with questions543 on the body type/shape, but they are young, have not started to lay yet so maybe they will fill out some more.
