Baby Breed

[Ss74]

My wife just got this chick at Tsc and they had no clue what breed it was. Yellow body with black feet. Anyone care to take a guess? I’m going to say it’s probably a week or so old.

Looks like a Mystic Onyx. MO chicks are usually black, so this one is probably a recessive white.

Hmm? And it doesn't have featherd feet, right?

Nope. We have some light Brahma adults, it doesn’t look like they did as chicks.

Weird. Well I'd go with MO's with recessive gene.

If it helps, it had 5 toes and black skin

I'm pretty sure it's Mystic Onyx. They're a hybrid with Silkie in them, which is where that black skin and five toes come from.

An update. The chick is now all white with a very downy feathering and black skin/feet etc. Still open for suggestions.

Silkie mix. I don’t no what MOs are, but everyone seems to think that.
