Red skinned bantams

[jacsta]

Can anyone help with the identification of the following 2 bantams. I bought them as ' 4 week old silkie chicks' last December And the do have 5 toes. Also do you think they are hens, they aren't crowing or laying eggs?

Well can't see the photos well enough but, silkies should have black skin. That doesn't necessarily mean they aren't silkies -just not show/breeding quality. Do they have walnut combs?

Hi thanks for that. Yes they do have walnut combs, they seem a bit bigger than my other silkie hens combs. I had hoped that they would be laying by now...humph. Thanks for answering my query.
