My new rooster

[Donnadzitall]

I recently bought 9 banty chickens for $30.00 which included 3 roosters and 6 hens. In the mix is two of these guys, can anyone tell me what they are? I was told they were Old English Spangled but I'm really not sure if they are. Any info would be great! Thanks, Donna

could be half spangled old english, But to me its a silkie with a unknown variety coloring.. and hard feathers, so silkie/Old english?

The other rooster of different breed is a silkie so maybe he has them cross breeding? Here is the other one...I have them all separated to prevent that with other banties I have. This silkie has the same type of comb on the forehead as well.
