“The chicken formally known as Jersey giant”. Now I’ve been told otherwise. Anyone know the breed?

So she can from leannes adoption chicks from Meyers. She is 5 weeks old now but I’ve included younger pictures. I have no idea what she is but she will need therapy because I’ve been wrongly calling her a Jersey giant for 5 weeks. Anyone?

I believe it's a barnevelder. Are those feet yellow?

Pink+gray. Black Copper Marans with lots of leakage?

What does leakage mean?

She has a lot more copper around her neck and looks black otherwise unless she’s in a lot of sunlight.

It’s feet look grey to me but I’ll get her out tomorrow and really look. Should I look at the tops or the bottoms of her feet?

Perhaps it's an olive egger. I see that's one possibility.

She definitely didn’t look like the day old chick picture for barnevelder.

She’s on my daughters upper arm in this picture.

Your daughter is adorable.

After looking at the offerings in that group I'm thinking maybe it's a golden cuckoo marans, but I haven't had that breed yet, so I can't be sure.

Beautiful birds. I wish. But when I looked at the chick pictures they show them with a white dot on their heads like barred rock have and mine definitely did not have any spot on her head.
