Grow outs! Both OEGB and Dutch. The ones with slate legs are Dutch.

The standard does call for dutch to be smaller, they are loosely feathered, with a lot of excess feathering, which make them appear bigger than oegb, while oegb have very tight feathering, and are mostly muscle. So while oegb have small body mass, they have more weight to them as its all muscle. Dutch and Oegb are similiar, but once you get them side by side, there are a lot of differences, both visually, and by holding one in each hand, the differences are obvious.

Dutch have white ears, slate legs, should weigh less than OEGB. They are not dubbed for showing. They can be flighty if not handled but will be sweet if they are. They are more loosely feathered than OEGB and the muscle is less defined in them. Their tails are fuller (more feathers in the tail). They have been used to improve the OEGB and OEGB have been used to improve them. This is because of how similar they are to each other.
