OEGB color help

New to posting but would this be considered opal?

These look closer to the Isabella color pattern to me.

There is a big thread from years ago on Opals, and the birds pictured look different from yours. Here's the thread: https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/opal-old-english-games-on-eggbid-i-have-questions.123517/

Thanks I’ve never heard of the Isabella color, I’ll do some research on that!

What would you consider these?

Those ones do look closer to opal, but since it's such a rare variety, I don't know it too well. Might be a good idea to post on this forum: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forums/exhibition-genetics-breeding-to-the-sop.16188/
