Are these splash orpingtons?

Hi! Does anyone know whether these are splash orpingtons? If not/are can you let me know why you think so. Thanks in advance!

The fact that they're flecked orange and brown... Makes me think they're not splash orps

Color does not look quite right for splash, which is blue based. They almost look paint. Where did you get them?

I agree that they look paint or at least have dominant white going on. Not splash

I agree.

There's a color scheme for splash coloring and pattern, yours don't fit the category.

Thanks for all your replies. Just wondering what “paint” is? The breeder I got them from only has orpingtons (of various colours).

Paint is a color variant. So they are still orps, just not splash.
