Beautiful hens, never seen anything like it before. Can some one tell me what breed they are?

I will get some better whole photos from the side profile but it's been raining badly today, will have to try at some point tomorrow.
They are 16 weeks old today!
The only hens I can see at the farm I got them from are Bluebelle, Light Sussex and Goldlines, and the only cockerel looks like a Welsummer x Goldline.
There is also one gold laced Wyandotte but I'm almost 100% sure she's new and wasn't there when I got the eggs...but she may have been..
I just don't understand how I ended up with 2 that look almost identical but there is none at the farm that look remotely similar!

In other news, I turned on my incubator on Monday, I'm currently incubating some purebreds from breeders online:

4 x Gold Dutch Bantams
2 x Barred rocks
3 x more mongrels from the farm
1 x Exchequer Leghorn
1 x White Leghorn

Should be hatching on 6th Feb :D I'm interested to see what 3 chicks I have from the farm this time...ha
 
Yeh it's very wet here and pretty cold too, but it's definitely been worse, and these days the worst part of winter in the UK seems to be in Feb/March now.
Our house is very old and can get cold, but I've set up a warm little nursery with lamps all ready.
Some one should've warned me earlier about how addictive it is to raise chickens!! :)
