I picked these "mystery Bantams" up today, what do you think they are?

[meowsandy]

They are very light yellow/buff with leg feathers. Any ideas? My kids are really hoping they are Silkies...

I think they are!!

Do they have really puffy heads?

They are definitely not silkies. Silkies have blue skin, and their head looks much different than that. I am not sure what they are, but they could be bantam cochins :/

can you get a full body shot...skin doesnt look black eaither...do they have 5 toes?

 

[aoxa]

For example, this is what a vaulted skull looks like (where they get the crests on top of their head) this is not a silkie, but it's the same idea.

Do they have beards? If they do Its a D'uccle bantam, as for the color it could be white, gold neck, blue, lavender or porcelain.

They said that in the initial post that they did. I am going to second the d'uccle opinion

I LOVE d'uccles!
