The angle of your photos isn't telling me exactly what I want to see, but look at leg position and their gait. Broad-breasted toms and hens both have legs that are stout and look like they go straight down from the body. Standards have legs that angle towards the center and a more "graceful" appearance. When they walk, BB's waddle like they have a 2x4 wedged between their legs and the standards walk with one foot placed in front of the other. Hope this helps.

I don't have any broads to compare to, but they look very similar in stance to my bourbon reds.
