Either way, could anyone take a guess at this mystery chick's mix?
She has no feathering on the leg, is solid black except for a little brown on the face (can't see that in the pic), dark colored feet with lighter bottoms, and came from a light cream/tan egg.
We never had wyandotts so we don't know the differences between them well enough yet. She is old enough to lay thogh. She's the same age as our silkie roo, and he's old enough to mate. The meatbirds are still growing. The two ees are experienced layers already.
We got an unexpected result from that egg. Ees produce chipmunk colored chicks, meatbirds and wyandotts produce white chicks. But this one is black with a little brown on the face.
Ok, I started a hatching experiment with a pair of easter egger hens and a americauna roo. We removed the roo some weeks before we found the egg. Wich is light cream colored. In that same pen we had 6 young meatbird hens and had just put a wyandott that we are unsure of gender of. That whyandott...
