Lots of great suggestions!!!

The Mealy gray is really the closes we have seen!!!

Thanks

Guess we will continue to watch the little guy grow!

Give him time to develop, may also be a silver duckwing.

2 months old, we're pretty sure he is a OEG Silver Duck Wing at this point.

Not a true silver duckwing because he doesn't have the silver wing marking. The Mealy Grey is looking pretty accurate, but I don't know what the down color of the mealy grey is. That would help define the color. He may also be a duckwing, mealy grey cross since he's exhibiting both color patterns to a certain degree, minus the wing bar.

Thanks for the insight guys! Guess we have some more waiting and research. He seems like a really terrific chicken, very people friendly, not skittish and he likes to be held.

I have one exactly like that from tsc, , one of the smartest bantams I have. I dont know what its called, mine is named AVON. He had such pretty markings we thought he must have make up on. We didnt know she was a he though...

It's a Silver Duckwing. I have a cockerel just like yours, so I hunted around and found out Townline only carries Silver Duckwing and Brown-Breasted Red OEG bantams at this time. Tiny little things aren't they?
