Breed confirmation

These are both suppose to be orpington, one lemon cuckoo, the other calico. What do you think?

The lemon cuckoo looks alright, but the other doesn't look right for calico to me. It almost looks like a red sex link pullet.

What is a Calico Princess? I saw some pics and wondered about the breed. I'm pretty certain she is not orpington either way. Thank you

Both have sweet green/blue eyes

Those will fade to yellow/orange as they grow, but the bluish baby eyes are just so cute while they last!

Calico princesses are a hatchery hybrid layers, not really a breed. I think their coloring is mostly red barred with some black barred at the neck and tail, but as they are hybrids they are variable.
