Hi! Could anyone please help me identify these two lovely boys that I have recently acquired. I'm not sure of their age, they started crowing a couple of weeks ago, they are a little smaller that my common hybrid hens so I would assume that they are bantams.
(The pictures don't show very well but they have a blue tinge to their tail feathers).
Thanks!! - Georgia


 
You have mixes. I would say a standard size bird mixed with Old English Games. The first looks like he could have gold laced Wyandotte in the mix somewhere. The second is mixed with something crested.
 
You have two mixes. Because they have small crests, they might be mixed with a Silkie. Some Old English Game or American Game also appears to be in their background.
 
Both birds appear to be mixes. The first one likely has some Wyandotte (probably Golden-Laced) in him, and the second one has some crested bird ancestry. A type of Game Bird, like Old English Game is probably a factor in their heritage, too. Pretty looking boys!
