Exactly what I said when I saw the pictures although I can't sex them to know the Old English Game Bantams are pullets.
Salmon breasts mean females, black breasts mean male.

Further, the Gold duckwing still has a pretty clear eyestripe--Duckwing OEGbs are autosexing in most lines, and the females have darker eyeliner than the males. It's a little harder with silver duckwing.

you are absolutely correct on the salmon breast on the silver duckwing. its clear and easy to see in the photo and I didn't even notice it. I have a bunch of silver duckwing chicks in 3 different breeds currently at 3 different stages (dorking, Leghorn, Pheonix) for some reason I struggle to see it on the golden duckwing, I have some phoenix and Welsummers this year. I knew about the eye difference but I never remember which one is male and which one is female. I know now because i read your post but in 5 minutes I will forget. you are definitely more observant than I am.
