This is Sunny, we are thinking that this might be a Roo but not 100% sure, Maybe a silkie Mix






This is Pebbles, we are pretty sure this is a hen. That is more of a seabright mix





This is Mocha, we are pretty sure that she is a hen, that is also a silkie mix
 
Your first looks like it's got some Polish in it; maybe buff polish??? I'm not really seeing roo feathers in the photos; it looks more like pullet to me. More photos (of the side and tail) might help.

I'd say the second is a Dutch or an OEGB (I still don't recall the what the difference is between those two!

) Maybe a silver- something color is what she is. : D


Your third also looks like it's got some Polish in it. It looks like a Gold-laced Polish mix. And, yup, I'd say pullet. : )

Hope that helps you a bit! : )
 
is their anyway that you have a polish and that is what the first and last are mixed with. the reason i dont think they are crossed with silkies is because i dont see feathers or even little stubbles. Are they clean legged? feathered feet is a dominate trait. So far everyone look like pullet, the second is for sure.

The difference between a Dutch and an Old English Game is the color of the earlobes and size of the bird. Dutch Bantams will have white earlobes, and often be a little more deep in body and larger. Old English Game are smaller, tighter featherd, and have red earlobes.

Both of these are silkie mix. On the white one she has 5 toes instead of four, that is where her attribute from the silikie is. And the redish one is staying small and has the crown feathers on her head. Both are sweet girls.
