Your 'wyandottes' aren't wyandottes. I'm not sure what they are. How big are they compared to the ISAs?
As for the ISAs, that's what it looks like you have, and that means they'd be pullets.

Definitely not silver laced wyandottes, wrong comb, wrong color/feather pattern. I'm not sure what they are.

Just took this pic a few minutes ago
Reminds me of a Silver Duckwing Old English Game Bantam
It really does, but do they make those in full size?

Well I’m thinking it’s definitely got to be a “common” breed since I got them at TSC (which I will never buy from again)!
They were in a bin with white/yellow chicks and the entire bin was labeled “Leghorn $1.99”.
When the employee was in there collecting the chickens, I asked him what the dark, striped chickens were and he looked at the tag and said “Leghorn” (without much confidence). I said they didn’t look like the others and he called another employee and she said Silver Laced Wyandotte’s. I bought these two and one of the yellow/white chicks from the bin and have since learned the yellow chick we assumed was a White Leghorn is indeed a Cornish Broiler. TSC really needs to educate their employees!!!!

Just googled Silver Leghorn and brought up this pic from the Internet of a juvenile Silver Leghorn which looks similar to mine...I think you may be right! Thank you

They are about the same size as the Isa Browns....maybe a tad smaller. They are definitely faster, fly more and are more skittish than my Isa Browns. I was told by an employee at TSC that they were Silver Laced Wyandotte’s....but I’m quickly learning that they don’t know what they are talking about most of the time.
