I'm new to bantams in general, I think I have " Old English Goldwing" bantam. I have 2 roosters (same) and 2 hens (same) One of the hens hatched 18 out 22 eggs. All doing great. But now the cocks all of a sudden want to fight. Gotta come up with a separation plan.

Those don't even look like bantams. I'm not certain on breeds, but bantams are a miniature breed of chicken that will be smaller, have a shorter back, wings pointing towards the ground, and broad chest.
@MysteryChicken @Overo Mare are both experienced in breeds. We'll see what they think.
I know bantams are miniature and these are indeed miniature. maybe the picture doesn't show that. I have "regular" chickens and these are not regular full size chickens

Okay, maybe its just the picture. Its sideways to so that may be contributing to the confusion. 🙃
Hmm, were did you get them? A specific hatchery or feed store hatchery will help shed some light. The color of the "Old English Goldwing" is very similar, but there body types are very different making me think its a different breed. I'm not professional haha!

I got them from someone giving them away so I don't know the original source.
