Miniature Hen Can't Find Breed

most backyard quality seramas are not the weird back to front looking ones you see in poultry shows.

they are more like this.

Bantam mix. She’s also being over-mated by your roos and looks pretty sore, maybe look into getting her a chicken saddle or separating the roosters while her feathers grow back. Please post clearer pics of the roos, they will be helpful in IDing them.
 
Your boy is a Blue Breasted Red Old English Game bantam. (a very handsome one too) I am still researching the color on your girl. Do you have a side picture of her standing? She could be OEGB also, maybe lemon blue, but as there are 40-50 colors of OEGB, I'm double checking to be sure. We have two OEGB girls that easily weigh in the serama weight ranges, but they stand a bit differently and serama legs are short. OEGB have long legs and a little different stance.
In one picture, it looks like she has a tiny bit of muff. Does she seem to have muffs to you? Is it a straight comb? If it is, it is not a d'Anvers. There is a color of d'Anvers that looks similar, but they do not have straight combs.

I agree with you on the leg length. I hadn't noticed that.

There are several different standards here in the UK for game birds. It's very interesting to see the variances!
