What breeds are these two pullets?

Picked up three pullets from the poultry swap yesterday, I know the black one is a Copper maran but what about the silver and brown ones?

They both look like they are a mix of breeds to me.

Yes, definitely mixed breeds. The silvery one may have silver laced Wyandotte in its ancestry. The gold one, maybe Welsumer or Easter egger in its ancestry. But difficult to say with any kind of certainty.

I agree the brown one looks like a Welsummer mix and the silver one looks like a Silver laced Wyandotte mix.

Olive Egger and Silver Laced Wyandotte but I am not so sure that that is a Black Copper Maran - thinking a Black Star maybe - Marans have feathers on their feet

They all look like mixed breeds to me.

The black one is definitely not a Marans as they don't have yellow legs and would have a different body type plus some feathers on their legs and the outer toes.

The silver-and-black one likely has Silver-Laced Wyandotte genes, but she is definitely not straightbred or a Silver-Laced Wyandotte in general. The golden-red one is possibly an Easter Egger, Olive Egger, or another mixed breed bird. The black one is not any sort of Marans, and is a mix as well.
