I suspect she has some Japanese Bantam in her, she also has cute pointy spurs
Age unknown, less than a year old for sure as she isn’t laying or squatting.

Where did you get your girl? I'm no expert, but I thought Dutch bantams have slate blue legs? And OEG Silver Duckwing bantams have whitish/pinkish legs?
Let me tag someone who will probably know for sure

Correct. Dutch bantams are completely different breed/variety than OEGB. I had 2 Dutch last year and they had the slate legs, and currently have 3 show quality 3.5 week old silver duckwing OEGB chicks with very yellow legs. I'm on my phone but will try to upload pics later.

And if anyone is looking for silver duckwing cockerels, I have got to rehome 2 as soon as I can. They sadly just "turned into boys" and I'm not allowed to have them. I'm in the East TN area, and I got them from a breeder that said they were from show quality bloodlines.

Uh oh man way to far, I need a silver duckwing cockerel but have none!

Lex and Ellie, 4 month old Dutch bantams that I lost last year. Ellie died of a broken heart after her sister Lex was a dwarf that failed to thrive once puberty hit.

Pearl, a 3 month old white crested cuckoo Polish top hat bantam. She was rescued from a grow out pen where males and non-Polish were attacking her head. We got the swelling down and the feathers are starting to grow back, and she’s becoming a spoiled brat.

Hey, post their photos on my thread https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/submit-your-photos-standard-bred-chickens.1277248/
I need a male specimen.

And last but not least, my current nuggets. OEGB silver duckwings, about 4 days old here. My mom fell in love with these guys while I was rescuing other chickens and somehow sent 3 to my house. Of course 2 are boys and I live in the city and cannot keep them. Sigh.

The girl has been deemed HawkGirl from my husband, and she’ll join Pearl and the EEs once she’s bigger.
