What breed are these hens?

Couldn’t get the best pictures but I have some dark gray hens with little tufts of feathers on their heads. I can’t remember for the life of me what breed they are. Anyone have any idea?

They look like our sapphire olive eggers! Beautiful girls!

I think you’re right! That definitely rings a bell. I have some other hens that look rather similar but without the tufts of feathers on their heads. Could those be saphires too ya think?

Yep! We bought 5 altogether, and I think 3 of the 5 have crests, and 2 don't.
