My great grandmother owns a huge collection of items with roosters, including plates, statues, paintings etc. These are her two favorites. What would you say are the best breed approximations of these two statues?

Maybe a Japanese bantam for the second one.
Black Tailed Buff would probably be closest, although Black Tailed White would also look similar.

For the first one, a rooster of any breed that has Black Breasted Red or Wheaten color. (Breast and tail feathers will be black, but the black tail usually has a green sheen.) For bantam (small) size, try an Old English Game Bantam (they come in many colors, so choose Black Breasted Red or Wheaten). For a larger chicken, maybe a Brown Leghorn. Some Easter Egger roosters have that color, too.
