faverolles and silkies have 5 toes per foot. given its skin colour it possibly has faverolle in it. I cant tell which gender as it is both to young to tell ( from its backend) and the photos are a little blurry ( could be my screen)
 
th first one looks like a pullet. the second has muffs which is why I also said possibly faverolle. I don't know about the second one, its harder to tell it could be either at this point
 
First bird is a mix, enough no specific breed is apparent. I think pretty much all the five toed breeds have feathered legs, and since feathered legs are dominant, it's been bred down a ways from the original breed. If anyone comes up with a five toed clean legged breed I'd love to hear!

Second bird looks like a pullet, but we need a few more things to be sure. Age of the bird is important, and a profile shot including legs is good for sexing.

Dorkings [and Houdans, but they are crested] have clean legs and five toes. She might be one, or a mix, since they do also come in that color, but they are pretty rare.
If she turns out to have short legs it is likely she is at least a mix, though.

Dorkings! Thank you, I had the nagging feeling I was missing someone. But, like you said, they're usually pretty distinctive with the shorter legs. And no crest, not Houdan...
