I've inherited a some chickens, however, I can't identify two of them. I believe they are both the same breed. Anyway, here's a picture of one of them. Any ideas?

It's difficult to see her ear lobes but they don't look white so I would say she is a welsummer or a welsummer cross. White ear lobes would indicate a brown leghorn, but this colour pattern can occur in crosses, so no guarantee she is pure bred. I have several crosses that look like this. If she is laying eggs, a welsummer will lay a nice terracotta coloured egg, sometimes with speckles and a cross will usually lay a mid brown egg. A leghorn will lay a white egg.
 
Wrong shape for a Welsummer. And color is a little off. I'd say she is a mix as well, looks like a Game cross to me. But its hard to say for sure from just one pic.

I'll see if I can get some more pictures of them tomorrow.
