Are these Serama's?

About a month ago, I bought these from a person who claimed they were Serama's. I've never had Serama's before, mostly only OEGB's. They are smaller bodied than my OEGB's, but do you think they are Serama's? I like them regardless, and got a great deal on them. I was just thinking about mixing them in with my OEGB's. I guess if anything else, I would possibly get smaller game bantams. I got 5 of them, 2 roos and 3 pullets. What do you all think? Do you think they are more OEGB or Serama, or Mix of the two? The three that are together are close to 4 months old now, and the 2 smaller ones are almost 3 months.

The three older ones are definitely serama mixes, and it is very possible that they're mixed with old english game bantams. The two smaller ones could be pure seramas or mixes, you'll have to wait a few weeks to be sure.
 
I have the exact same situation; age and all. I know mine are a mixed breed. One rooster has a pea comb! At this age they are the same size as my 20 wk. old OEGB.
Some of them have what is close to the same stance as the purebred seramas, and they are cute. I 'm thinking about crossing them with the OEGB in order to come up with a smaller bird. Does anyone else think this might work?
