Show off your Old English Game Bantams!!

Pics
I am very new to chickens and also to bantams. I was given four bantams last weekend - a rooster and three hens. I've been told my rooster (I have named him Spike) is a Porcelain, my black hen (Esmeralda) is a Birchen, and my little blonde (Coco) is a Red Pyle. So far, my little gray hen (Fleur) is a mystery woman. Can anyone on here tell me what she is? She is at the top of the picture and despite how light she looks in the picture, she is a little darker than that without all that bright sunshine which made the picture a bit washed out. Fleur is definitely the fattest of the three hens.

She looks like a cochin!
 
Quote: Thanks troyer. The picture does not do her justice. Her coloring is very close to some pictures I've seen on here of what's called a Lemon Blue. Regardless of what she is, she is pretty and precious. All 18 of my birds are in their own way...even the poor RIR who is starting to molt.

Hi. I am getting 5 silver duckwing OEGBs tomorrow. I have heard tons of good things about the breed. I am going to show them and possibly hatch some eggs from them. I do have a question or two though. I read males over a year old, so roosters, have to be dubbed to be shown. Once they are past a certain age can you still do this? And how do you dubb them? Thanks
