Help me figure out these mixed breeds!

These two are definite mixes, but I’m so curious to know what breed mix you guys think they are.

The black one so far is literally all black, maybe a bit of grey coming through on her feet.

These two originate from the same farm, it has primarily silverudds and marans (the marans are pure bred and in a separate barn) so I suspect both are mixed with silverudd. The farm did have a few ayam cemani at one point; and wyandottes, also at one point had some bergs brown. Also currently has some crele legbar. I have some silverudds I got there that have crests, so I suspect somewhere along the line a legbar was mixed with their silverudd line.

So for the black one, do you think silverudd/legbar mixed with ayam cemani? I’m just confused how she could be SO black?? I have one I got last year sold as a silverudd that’s pretty darn, dark face, but her comb and wattles are red.

The second one has a dad who was a total mix and the mom is either a brown layer or the roosters offspring from last year who was a mix of him and a brown layer. The rooster came from the same farm. The guy thought he was a silverudd mixed with maybe a bergs brown or something. But how is she so splash like?? And looks a little bit fibro too. The mom can only be a brown layer (like isa brown type hen) or this roosters offspring from last year.

This is the white chickens dad when he was a young boy.

The white chicken isn't splash, she's paint. She has one copy of the dominant white gene over a black base. And I don't really see the "fibro" you're talking about. Her beak looks a little dark, sure, but similar in color to her dad's. She has kind of dark legs, but non-fibro birds can have dark legs too.

Oh I didn’t mean she is fibro. She’s a complete bym, both parents are mixed!

I was looking for input on what breeds people thought she was mixed on. Sorry if I didn’t get the correct terminology in my post, that’s not really what I was looking for input on.

I’d love if you explained what paint meant if that is the correct terminology rather than splash.

I have silverudd splashes which came from the farm her rooster dad came from so I was thinking that’s where the colouration came from. It sounds like you have a different idea of her genetics though? What’s your take?

Silverudds have grey legs so I thought she was likely part silverudd.
