Are my girls Orpingtons?!

[Charlie Chalk]

Recently was given two very sweet chickens by my sister, but she only called them “bantams” but didn’t know the breed. I’ve been Googling and think they might be black Orpingtons, but I’m really not sure. Both very sweet girls, although we’ve subsequently purchased some silkies and they’re more aggressive to the newbies than I expected, which is making me doubt my IDing skills….

They could be black Australorps, which are more common than black Orpingtons. I can't quite tell what kind of comb she has, though.

My first thought was Australorps, but I'm not sure that one gets bantams ones?

They look right for black Orpington bantams.

Thanks everyone, I also wondered as to whether they were Australorps… I guess as they get older I might have a clearer idea!

They look right for black Orpington bantams.

I agree
