What breed are these Bantam Hens?

[kateschickens1]

I have two Bantam hens that are almost 8 weeks old.

Presto is yellow/golden and very fluffly and she has furry feet.





Bitzi is very small.







I'm just wondering what type of bantam they are. Please post if you have an idea on what they are. Thanks!

Your first chick is a roo with comb and wattles that big at 8 weeks.
I'd say Cochin bantam.

Your second looks like an Old English Game Bantam pullet.

Thanks but I'm pretty sure they are both hens though... The lady at the store checked

The first is a buff Cochin bantam. The second looks to be a silver duckwing Old english game bantam.

X3. The second is no question a Silver Duckwing OEGB pullet. The first is buff Cochin, almost certainly roo, sorry.

have to agree that the buff cochin is a rooster, I breed cochins and have never seen a hen with comb and wattles that big at 8. Weeks old

Hatcheries do not sex bantams, no matter what the store told you. The first one is a cockerel.
