Help!! What breed and/or gender are my chickens ?? I was told they were bantam chickens ?

how old, and wear did you buy or get them from? it seams to maybe be a crested breed.

They look like a mix, something crested with dominant white. Maybe legbar/leghorn? I don't see any male specific feathers, but we would really need to know approximate age to guess gender. I'm assuming they aren't currently laying or crowing?

They look like pullets to me, and they are not bantams. They look like they could be some type of Egger or a type of Egger that's maybe mixed with a White Leghorn.

Hi, I am not sure how old they are. I got them in November and this is how they looked. Supposedly they were about a month old ?

Hi, thank you. No they still haven’t laid any. See pics attached when I received them in November

Yes, I think pullets too. Or one young boy and one young girl. Would be handy if we know the age.

Bantam is about size, not the way they look. Do you know how many different bantam breeds there are?

I have 3 different breeds and my Dutch bantams come in 3 different colours.

Or could they possibly be White Ameraucana ?

I don't think they could because White Ameraucana's have beards and muffs/no crest.

In that case, they must be at least 4 months old.
I think they are both females.

Bantams are small chickens. There are many different breeds of bantams.

It's hard to be sure from photos, but I think yours do look small enough to be bantams.

I cannot think of any breed of bantam that would look quite like them, so I think they may be mixes rather than any specific pure breed of bantam.
