What am I?

He came from an assorted bantam bin at Atwood's. He's a lot smaller than the others I got at the same time. I picked him because he was solid yellow with 2 black dots on his head. He's about 6-8 weeks old. His feathers look rough because I have a nibbling gosling. He has freedom now from them.

I forgot to add he is so very sweet.

He looks to be an Ancona!

I just googled Ancona bantam. Ditty's wingtip and tail feathers are white. I do have a Ancona duck!!

Yes I understand that and they usually are white when young eventually turning darker!

I could be wrong, so hopefully someone else comments!

I was wondering if they'd turn black. It's ok if he's an Ancona. I just want to know what he is. Assorted bantam bins are a crap shoot, lol.

That they are, but it really does look like one to me!

I looked up Ancona chicks but he didn't look like that. I dug more and I believe he is a Japanese mottled because he looked at exactly like the pictured chick.

Thanks for your help!!!!!

It's a mottled Japanese. Hatcheries do not have bantam Anconas.

I Think he is beautiful! The nibbling made his feathers look frizzle!!
