Any more information? Where did you get it is a big help. Meaning did it come from a hatchery and is likely a pure bred, or from "some chicken lady" and could be a mix of who knows what?

 

My first guess is black sex link.

Well, the kittens aren't so cute anymore and the easter egger cockerels are in the freezer. Plus, I think offering them as "prizes" scared folks off! So, I'm still posting quotes, if you know it let me know. I'm very enamored of this new one, it may hang around for a while!

LONG story, short version.  Today, we lost one of our 10 week old chickens.  Nephew devastated so my brother impulsively replaces it with this chick, he bought at local co-op/feed store, right before closing.  Didn't ask any info!   I can call on Monday to find out....was just looking for input till then.

 

roller coaster of a day......

 

THANKS!!!
