What bantam could I be?!

I couldn't resist getting the 2 smallest bantams from the assorted bantam bin today! I am hoping for OEGB or Seabright any opinions are welcomed! Thanks!

Anyone want to take a guess on my bantam surprises??

Does anyone else have any bantams that look like these?! What could they be? The darker one is a tiny bit bigger and has a tiny straight comb. The smaller one is not much bigger than a quarter and doesn't have a comb showing yet.

I just got a bantam that looks like that. I heard it might be a black breasted red old english game.

Ok cool! So they are both black breasted red OEGB? Could the paler one be a female? The darker one stands a little straighter. They are really the friendliest chicks I've ever had!! And peep like something is wrong and when I come talk to them they stop lol it's like they want my attention lol!!

It's really hard to tell with these. It's more like a wait it out and see thing.

The first looks like a silver duckwing oegb and second a black breasted red. I have found with our silver duckwings that the hens brown spots are always darker than the Roos as chicks

Thanks!! I have been looking at the MANY different OEGB colors and I thought the first one looked a little silver duckwingish lol!! I just hope I picked a male and female!! We shall wait and see if they are different color patterns what would they be if they bred? Do I need the same colors to breed?
