Buff Opington?

[Westholme Farmstead]

My sister purchased hatching eggs and hatched out what was supposed to be Buff Opingtons. She gifted this one to my son today but I'm not so sure it's a Buff Opington. The legs are yellow, not white and I don't think the black feathers are normal for a Buff. Suggestions on what it could be?

She also hatched Columbian Rocks along with the Buff Orpingtons. This one is kind of marked like a Columbian Rock but it's red and not white.

Definitely not a Buff Orp. Maybe some kind of red sexlink mix, or a Columbian Rock mixed with something else??

Your chick is definitely not a Buff Orpington or an Orpington at all, and appears to be a mixed breed without much Orpington genes, if any, in her. She could not be a Columbian Rock either, since they have white feathers with black-streaked hackles, black saddles and black sickles.

That's kind of what I thought Makes no difference to me at all but I feel bad that she paid for purebred eggs!

Thinking it's some kind of mixed breed but idk of what breeds.
Ya not a buff Orpington and with yellow shanks it's not a buff Orpington 1st generation cross either

How much did the eggs cost? Those "Buff Orpingtons" are definitely not what they are supposed to be!

I'm pretty sure they were $4/egg. Not crazy but definitely more expensive than mixed breeds are going for around here.

Unfortunately her feather pattern is from a juvenile bird so not a great start to ID.

She's a mix. Might be some BO in her, but hard to say for sure.
