I know it's a Bantam of some sort. The feathers are so different.

I would say a frizzled bantam cochin :) Mine looked like that as a baby... And then her son looked like that, and now his daughter looked like that :)

She's 4 weeks, but she's a cross between a Sizzle (frizzled cochin-silkie cross) and my standard cochin.

LOL. She's very cute! When should I be able to determine the sex?

This is Rafiki as a 2 week-ish old, i think... He ended up being a boy...

 

And this is his mommy Razzle-Frazzle-Dazzle (Razzy for short, lol!) She's my "purebred" bantam frizzled cochin, hanging out with my dog...

I don't remember when I was able to tell boy vs girl on them... I'm guessing with the first one- Zena- since she seemed to feather out at the same rate as my other ones I think are girls, compared to my one i know for sure is a boy..

Razzy is Rafiki's mom, Rafiki is Zena's dad. :) I think I have a pic of rafiki around here somewhere now... hang on.

 

Here it is.  He got his white from his dad who's a white silkie :)

I can't wait to see what mine's going to look like. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a girl!
