Any guesses on this little guy?

Any guesses on this one? It's not a Golden Laced Wyandotte, we have some of those. Thanks!

 

[btruegs]

what hens and roosters do you have?

 

[Gingersnap722]

It was the mystery chick from McMurray, so not one that we hatched.

 

[btruegs]

I'm guessing either leghorn or dutch bantam

Leghorn:


Dutch bantam:



WARNING:

When it gets a little older, you will have to clip its wings because both breeds are very flighty and are known to roost in trees. I have a dutch bantam and she flew over my 8 foot tall coop.


Good luck!

what a cute little thing!

 

[Gingersnap722]

Thanks, yeah he/she is adorable. I appreciate the tips too. I love getting the mystery chicks!

Not sure of the breed, but I do believe it's something black breasted red, and a pullet.

The only bird that Murray McMurray sells that seems to fit its appearance (leg color, feather color and pattern, etc.) is a Black Breasted Red Game pullet.

 

[Gingersnap722]

Thanks, I sure hope it's a pullet.

I had one that looked like that. When it was a chick it was all black with a light reddish head. feathered out the same and ended up being what looked like a black sex link.
