What breed am I?

I was told this is a bantam when I got him (the white one)... I can't figure out what he is... he's around 4 months old now, in this pic... Any ideas? He's featherfooted, and still pretty small, but I don't know how big a rooster should be at 4 months old either... Any ideas?

Someone guessed this was a dominique... the black and white one... were they right? Also, I don't know if it's male or female... was guessing male from how red his comb is...

Looks like a Dominique hen to me.

Oh good, I hope you're right... cuz I'm getting ready to sell a lot of chickens and it's turning out that my favorites that I want to keep are roosters and we have plenty of roosters lol and she's one of my favorites

How old is he/she?
The tail does seem a bit long but the comb and wattles dont seem very large.

The comb won't be big, as it's that flat kind of bumpy comb... I forget what it's called...

It is called a rose comb, I have 2 dominiques.
I was wondering if that was a bantum, mine are full size dom's.
I Don't own any bantums and don't know much about them, if that were a full size dom id'e say the comb and wattles are small for a roo but the tail was kinda long for a pullet... hey wait, I did

I guess my answer is, I dont know because its a bantum.
Also mine are 4 months old as well. If you want to campare there are pics in my esther winnie thread.

Ok, After further evaluation, I'll put my money on roo.
But I'm not sure.
And there you have it

The bird in the first picture looks to be a cochin of some sort. I can't really get a good look at the hackle feathers of it, but it looks like a pullet. As for the dom., I would also say its a rooster. Good luck!

Yes , the white one in the first pic is a cochin but don't know about the other one.

I cropped the pic a bit better where it's closer up... maybe y'all can see better. I don't have any better pics of the dominique though. I do think the white one is a roo, but then I'm new to all this too... but his neck feathers are pretty long... but the wattles aren't all that big though... maybe y'all can tell with the better pic though.
