She looked kind of astrolorpish, but as she gets bigger, she gets more silver on her breasts. I have her sister and brother as well. The other pullet is just like this one, with gold on the breast, and the brother is totally black.
This is a pic of her sister and brother (his booty anyway)

This is another of her brother.

The guy in the back is unrelated...Any ideas on him?

He is actually black with gold on him, and he has a pea comb, I believe it's called. It is definitely not a rose comb or straight comb.

EDIT--These guys are the size of a full sized bantam OEG, and they are approximately 3&1/2 months old.

I don't know what they are. I bought them with a hen this summer, who was not their mama, she tried to kill them when I got them home. They are probably bantam sized, but a bit bigger, as there is a bantam pullet that runs around with them that is about the same age, but half as big. They are not full sized, I don't believe. My dad has some full sized 'chicks' running around the yard that are about the same age, and those are at least twice as big as these, if not 3 X's bigger.

ETA- the black and gold one in the back is a bantam, they are the same size as he is, and about the same age I think.
