I am VERY new to the "chicken world" I was given two unwanted bantams. I have been doing my research but holy moly there is a lot to learn! So far I have 5 star predator proof accommodations and basic food/water needs down, but I'm still learning! These two were going to be destroyed, but they are the most entertaining little things, and one of them is an egg laying machine! Anyway, can someone tell me what breed of bantam they are? Neither one crows, they actually make little chirping sounds almost like turkeys!
Thanks in advance!

Does the first hen have fuzzy cheeks (muffs) and a pea comb (looks like 3 rows of little bumps)? The second also looks to have the muffs (fuzzy cheeks) and a crest (feathers sticking up behind the comb)? Can you get a close up shot of their heads?
 
I can try when I get home today and yes you are exactly right, little muffs and the one does have a comb!
Thanks!
 
Not Silver Dutch. I, too, am seeing muffs and a possible pea comb. They may be Ameraucana or Easter Egger bantam mixes.
