Purchased this from the bantam unidentified assortment bin at TSC. Got four. They all look like these. I have no clue what they are. Appear to be clean leg. Shanks are grey but much lighter then true slate like an Ameraucana's. Comb is flat right now, definitely not straight, maybe pea maybe rose. Unsure. Toes and soles are yellow. Beaks are pink.appears to maybe be a blue variety of something. Wing feathers are white with what appears to be possible black lacing?

I have no clue 😏 what they might be, anyone have some guesses?

***Edit- looking closely at everyone's combs they appear to all have three vertical ridges? Also the color on lacing looks more grey/blue then black on some of them? Not sure if sebrights come in different colors then black/silver.

Also curious if anyone knows of any possible common crosses that might use a sebright as one half? I would think they would be pure from TSC but I guess it possible they are hybrids too?

There are actually quite a few cases where light legs at hatch can turn slate later on. Wheaten Ameraucanas hatch with pale legs that turn slate. Lakenvelders sometimes hatch with pale legs that later turn slate. Dominant white can cause a chick to hatch with pale legs that turn slate later on, as I learned when I tried to do a skin color sexlink cross that, as a result, went rather disastrously. 😅 This is one of those cases as well, because the pictured chick is definitely a Silver Sebright bantam.
 
Looks just like mine and others say a seabright.
Now mine is more speckled and still confusing to me!
I'll send some pics in age progression...

Looks just like mine most are saying seabright. You may see the pics on my post.
She began as a little yellow fuzzball with pink legs. Next, she began getting dark blotches on her rump. The next few days brought feathers with dark bands.
Now, she has gone all white-no longer any yellow, speckles with gray legs-no feathering on legs little tail is black and white.
Not a Sebright, she doesn't have a y lacing. What leg color does she have? I'm thinking Hamburg.

Not a Sebright. Sebrights have slate legs, not orange legs. And it cannot be an Ameraucana because Ameraucanas have muffs and a beard, and Tractor Supply does not carry actual Ameraucanas.
And it has grey tinted legs? The toes are pinkish. BUT I got Andalusians this year too and when I got them as week olds I thought their feet were not right, because lots of them didn't have slate legs they had yellow and slate legs but mostly yellow and definitely yellow feet, now that they are older, a couple months their legs and feet have changed color and are dark slate now.

Don't know if sebrights can do that or not. I have never had them. Not sure if I will keep them. Time will tell.

Once slate legs, always slate legs. Legs can change a little bit in color, but not much.
