Title: What breed is this chick?
Post by: CluckyChicken on August 08, 2011, 10:45

So, I hatched out this chick a week ago, and I'm not sure what breed it is.  I was told it would be a rhode island red bantam.  However, it is light yellow, has fluffy legs and the wing feathers so far are black, white and salmony-brown!  So, does anyonne have any ideas on my 'mystery' chick?  :D  ???

First two pics are as a day old, other two are as a week old.

is it tinier than your other chicks you have hatched? It may be millefleur sabelpoot or barbu d'uccle  :)

Definitely not a Rhode Island!

Lovely chick though!  More like a LS, except for the brown colouring and faethery legs and its not got anything round its neck, although some of our LS tooka couple of weeks to get their neck colouring.

A lot smaller, but the others are mostly LF, apart from two hamburg bantams, and they are both bigger than him too!
