what type Bantams?

if it looks like an OEG, but has grey legs and white ear lobes it is definately dutch bantam. if it has pink legs, then it's a cross OEG and dutch. I have dutch and oeg cross dutch myself.
 
I guess I am not helping much guys. I am frustrated because I can't get the photo to upload onto the post. I did however get it to upload into the website. Both the hen and the Roo, just still can't get it over into my post to you so ya'll can.view them. Thanks for.all your attemps. Maybe I will.figure it out. If I had access to a computer rather than using my cell so I could copy.and paste, but can't use one where I live.
 
I know the pair is a pure bred breed. As they are from show stock and recently acquired. The legs are yellowish cream color. Not showing any grey. Do the Dutch only come with grey legs?
 
i went crazy trying to upload to this forum:) What i do is click on the tab to post. go to uploads at top of page and that will give the option to browse for pics. then under that box it says my uploads in tiny letters:) click that and copy link under pic. x out and paste to you message. then start all over again for the next pic. there may be an easier way, not sure.

sometimes the dutch can have pale legs and they become darker with age. I had a dutch pullet who's legs we yellowish cream and as time went by, they became darker.

Once you uploaded into the website:
1) click on "uploads"
2) click on "my uploads" on the right side bottom
3) under each photo you will see two links, highlight and copy the second one
4) paste the copy into your post
5) once you hit preview or submit the photo will show with the image.

Hey guys....My husband ran into the man who gave him the Bantams. He had brought them home to me and that is why I didn't know what they were. Anyway as it turns out they are not Dutch Bantams, but are Brown Leghorn Bantams. Thanks for all the inputs from everyone. Without photos it made it hard to I.D. At least the mystery is solved. Thanks guys!
