What breeds are these roosters?

Rooster #1

Rooster #2

This rooster does have a dark red face while the others have cream face. But I still don’t know if it’s a Red Cochin or a Buff Cochin.

My sisters are showing Bantam roosters at our county fair this July but we have a slight problem. We bought three types of Bantams, Partridge Cochin, Red Cochin and Buff Cochin. One of my sisters is showing Partridge Cochins while my other sister is showing Buff Cochin. The problem is we can’t tell the difference between the Buff Cochin and the Red Cochin roosters. I’ll post pictures but we need to know the types in less than a month so I hope someone can help us.

Buffs are yellow to orange colored. Those all look like they're red to me (except possibly 5?) Maybe there was a mix-up with the order?

EDT: And the cream face is indicative of nothing. It just means that they haven't finished getting in their facial feathers.

Good luck at the fair.

They are definitely not buff. They all look red to me. Buff and red can look VERY similar as day olds though.

Thank you all. This has helped a lot. Now we can figure out what to do about it. I have a feeling now that the order had to of been mixed up since all the hens we got of the same breeds are the same red color. There’s no orange or yellow colored ones.

They are all reds. #2 is the best/closest to how a red should look.
