Trying again with my uncooperative babies

This group of babies is not as camera friendly as my first group, lol. I'm trying to figure out what breed these 2 are. Right now, I'm leaning towards buff brahma bantam.

Hashbrown is in the first 3 pictures, with the cream on its wings.

Bubble is the last 2 pictures, and is more uniformly gray.

Both look very similar in the face and have the same comb type. I read that in buff brahma bantams, more cream on the wings and around the head around 3 weeks indicates male, while more smoky gray indicates female.

Gender isn't my big concern right now, but I mention that mainly because if those are markers, I thought maybe it pointed towards them actually being buff brahmas.

Any thoughts are appreciated, thank you!

They do look like buff Brahma to me as well.
Thank you!

When I saw them in the bin at Rural King, I saw the feathered feet and I thought they were cochins. They were amongst probably 3 dozen New Hampshires and being trampled, so it was so hard to tell. I pretty quickly felt that they weren't cochins because none of the colors were really close to cochins. Then the glaringly obvious comb difference dawned on me.
