Is this a salmon favorelle?

Ok, then my original idea of cochin was correct. No muff on this one for sure. Well, can't wait to see what he/she turns out to look like. Of course it will likely be a boy, since it is super pretty

It's not a Faverolles-wrong skin color gives that away right off the bat. Maybe Wheaten Cochin Bantam cockerel

Actually I take back the wheaten color suggestion. Can you get a picture of him standing, without a hand in the way?

Are these good enough? If not I can try to get better ones when I get home.

Shoot, he actually almost does look wheaten. @Overo Mare, what color?

That is ODD. Wheaten is not a color found in Cochins. Not recognized and not one I've seen anyway.

Op, post a pic when it is fully feathered out. I'm beyond interested to see what this one looks like later.

This was the day I brought him/her home on April 10th. It's a huge change!

Does everyone at Hoover in charge of the breeding pens just stay drunk now?

Did they hire a bunch of young children to manage them?

This is a first. That down color is crazy in contrast to that plumage coming in. Looks like a mixed pattern.

I kinda found myself wondering that as well lmao! I wasn't expecting amazing quality chickens, but I at least figured I would be able to know what the heck breed they were! Well, at least the silkies are always easy to tell anyway.

That's why I was thinking wheaten Yellow chick down to black chest. So, SO weird
