I think it's either a New Hampshire red or Rhode Island red.

 

[Kat's Silly Chickens]

Oh, I can only wonder how if it is a New Hamp Red, (Rhode Island Reds are darker as chicks) it could have been mistaken for a Red Silkie.
We ordered Silkies and a Sultan.
I am SO disappointed

in Ideal Poultry that they can make such a mistake.

Thank you for the hint.
Let's see if there are any other breed suggestions.

 

[Kat's Silly Chickens]

I forgot to include that it is most likely a Bantam, it's even smaller than the 2 Silkies and Bantam Sultan. We ordered all Bantams so maybe that will help.

It's neither of the so far listed birds.

It looks like a Wheaten colored cockerel, possibly an Old English Game Bantam.

Thank you all so far.
I'm gonna keep posting new pics each week til it is positively able to be identify.
Do you really think it's a cockerel, you can tell at this young an age?

 

[Illia]

If it really is wheaten, so far yes. Wheaten cockerels at a young age will develop a lot of black on their feathers, then completely feather out as solid black and red birds. The females will feather out a pale brown and creamy white color.

Course, this chick may just be a production red or cross or something. . . We'll see as it matures.
