What kind of feather-legged banty is this?

I had some kind soul pick up three little banties from the Oak Harbor feed store this morning as I wasn't able to get there before they sold out. I asked her to grab anything that looked like a silkie or a frizzle, and these are what she picked out. She said the two yellow ones in front have 5 toes and look to be white silkies, but that back one that's gray and yellow is a mystery. I'll post more pics when I get to pick my babies up on Friday, but until then, anyone got a guess?

Thanks!
 
They don't appear to have dark skin, which is a count against them being silkies (although they are hatchery birds so faults are common). Possibly sultans? The buff/grey one could be a light partridge silkie with incorrect skin colour. Or perhaps a porcelain d'uccle?
 
Ummm, no? At least one (left, front) looks like it may have a vaulted skull, and 5 toes do not a cochin make

I doubt the pale yellow & grey is a blue--splash maybe; more likely patterned in some manner.
