PLEASE help me out!
I found two chickens walking up my driveway this past Sunday. No idea where they came from. I have always wanted chickens so it was a pleasant surprise and I am embracing being a new chicken mom:) However, I am not super educated on chicken breeds and am not sure what genders I have either. I do think they are 6-8 weeks old and both have a lot of personality. I unfortunately live in a place that will not allow roosters so I will have to find new homes for them if this is the case, which breaks my heart because I've already grown attached to them!! One of them has a more defined comb and wattles and is a bit bigger in size (last 2 photos). The first 3 pictures are of the smaller one with a less defined comb and wattle. Sorry for not the best pictures, I mostly have videos and couldn't upload them.
I am driving myself crazy googling and trying to figure out what they are, there is so many different things out there. I was hoping this page would help me out. Thanks in advance and any new chicken advice is appreciated! A coop for them is already being built and if I do have to rehome these ones, I plan on going and getting my own pullets.

The first one looks like a splash Easter Egger pullet considering the beard, pea comb, and green legs. The other one has a single comb and is nonbearded but because of the similar coloring I'm assuming they are related. They might be EEs or EE mixes and they both look like pullets so far.

Thank you so much! I appreciate it. I'm really hoping they are pullets because I really want to keep them!

I'm not very good at breeds but for the videos you can upload to YouTube and post a link or . . .

What I do is, move the video from my phone to my computer and use VLC Media player to take stills from the video and post those.
