Leghorns are great egg laying chickens. They are friendly to other Leghorns and can easily fly. The only problems is that they are bad in the pecking order and they can make a mess of the yard....

I got some chicks and one of them was supposed to be a brahma. There is only 1 chick that looks like a brahma (I saw pictures on flickr that looked exactly like her)but she's small, so I’m thinking she’s a bantam brahma? Also, Brahmas are supposed to be booted-she has no sign of any feathers on her legs.

Any ideas?

not a delaware.

chick is too generic looking, can't count on color as that is due to specific genes rather than "breed", for example it could easily be a mixed breed or a mixed color(same breed, but parents different colors..).

if it has a pea comb, possibly an EE or a mix. If single comb, will just have to wait until it is more than halfway grown before any reasonable guesses can be made.
