Buttercups or Golden Penciled Hamburgs??

[Teva]

Does anyone know how to tell the difference? The breeder is no help - he told me they were New Hampshires!! They have green legs and the comb - well, it's either a buttercup or a rose comb, I can't tell? I'll try to get a closer picture of the comb. I love their eyeliner, though! So cute.

the buttercup comb will look like 2 single combs side by side, the rose comb will be flat

I found this picture from this website http://aviewfromthegreenbarn.blogspot.com/2008/07/chicken-update.html
He says she is a golden penciled hamburg:

and here is a picture of a buttercup from http://www.chickencrossing.org/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=59905

and even further, is that the pullet coloring of both breed is EERILY SIMILAR. Which is why I'm so confused.

You have buttercups, and so does the fellow of the adult hens pictured above. Hamburg's have rose combs.

Sweet. Thank you Rhode Runner! For the record, I'd be happy either way. They are such pretty birds!
