My daughter’s elementary school class got baby chicks and we volunteered to take a few once they outgrew the classroom. But the breed of this one is throwing us for a loop, and naturally it got lost in translation from teacher to daughter to us.
I’m guessing she is 2-3 weeks old. Supposedly she is female, according to the teacher. She was purchased at a feed store so I’m guessing it’s a common breed. Single comb, clean legs, 4 toes. Feet are orange but legs look darker further up. Her feathers are growing in half white and half a brownish kind of grey. The color looks more brown than grey in sunlight. She’s got pretty distinct markings on the face, with very pronounced eyeliner, especially under the eyes.
