Any ideas? The buff looks maybe like a Cochin? The lighter one I can’t tell. Guy at TSC said they were doing 3 hatcheries this year, but guessing still Hoover. 5 pics of each.

If they're Cochin Bantams the currently yellow (lighter) chick could be a Buff Cochin Frizzle Bantam and the one with a red tinge could be a Red Cochin Frizzle Bantam. If they're male and female do not breed them to each other.

I'm not 100% on the breeds, but I had a SR assortment of bantams I got at TSC last year. And they look a lot like the Cochin bantams I had.
 
Thanks for the help!
Right, I read where breeding frizzles will result in chicks with brittle feathers that break and would be harmful to them. Definitely will not be trying to breed these. (Pets for my daughters.)
 
Or feel free to breed and keep them together without hatching the eggs. Double frizzles make for chickens that look naked and molting all the time, definitely kinder to avoid.
