what breed is this pair..??

My guess would be a Black tailed white Japanese Bantam...Cock and Hen...the reason I would guess this is because I had a few Black tailed Buff Japanese bantams....the only difference I can see is that your birds are black and white...I really enjoyed them...real characters....the hens were broody as can be. One day just for fun I offered the hen all the eggs I was collecting that afternoon..just to see what she would do...well, she accepted all 18 eggs...tucking them under her as best as she could...by the time she had them arranged...she was sitting atop a pyramid of eggs, proud as could be...and puffing up like a blow fish when you made any move to take her Treasures from her...the Rooster was an escape artist...and a very proficient flyer...he frequently found his way to the roof...two stories up...If that's what they are you will enjoy them.
 
Japanese bantams have red earlobes, these birds have white. Waiting to see what the bantam folks say....I know Dutch bantams have white earlobes, not sure if they're a project color or ?
 
heyy everyone... thanks all of you for your reply... I don't own them yet... there was a person selling them as a pair of serama so i have a habit of posting pictures of my possible futur chickens to see if the person is selling them as the exact breed... to The Poppster: i already have a trio of japanese bantam( 1 blacktail white japanese bantam rooster,1 white japanese bant hen and a grey japanese hen) i'm thinking maybe they are a mix between serama and dutch bantam as they have white earlobe as donrae said.. i had two white dutch bantam hen that i sold... they were tiny as serama but laid big eggs compared to their size... i think i'll not buy them... tomorrow will be going to a breeder to choose between silkies, mille fleur d'uccle or phoenix bantam... and they are all expensive specially the silkies cause they are a very rare breed in my country... any idea on what to choose.. besides they are all gonna be pets...
 
I think posting pics here before you purchase birds is an excellent idea! I wish more folks did this, we could save some heartaches especially with gender.
 
@donrae thanks... it surely is a good idea as it prevents people from buying unwanted breeds... i've done this 3/4 times and got great responses...i always do this cause pure breed chickens are quite expensive... A pair of silkie can cost anywhere from 60 dollars to 160 dollars depending on the quality... so it is a must for me not to lose money...
 
They look like either Dutch Bantam mixes or a "project color" of Dutch.
