The silver headed ones look like my Silver Laced Wyandottes...

The silver headed ones - how about Egyptian Fayoumi? I know Ideal sells them...and they kinda look like that. I was thinking about ordering some next year.

#4 looks like an Easter Egger to me...green legs give it away...they come feathered in all different colors...combs never get very big.

The ones with silver heads are Fayoumis, but does the one have green legs? They should not have green legs. I have several right now and they have almost a black leg. Hope this helps.

"Fayoumis are fairly small active chickens that have been raised along the Nile River since times B.C. They are very fast maturing and pullets may start laying a small tinted (off-white) egg by 4 months of age. The cockerels will often be crowing by six weeks of age. Males reach a weight of 4.5 pounds and females reach 3.5.

These fowl are similar in plumage pattern to the European Campines. Legs may be willow green or slate blue. The neck is quite long and they have a very high, almost vertical, tail carriage. "

quote from feather site, it does look like they are Fayoumis. It also looks like not all green legged chickens are EE's

I agree #4 with the green legs is an EE. I have quite a few of them and they come with all different feather colors.
