Bantam I.D. help

[HNB23]

I really thought this was a buff cochin bc the feather feet and yellowish/ tan color it started with.

Where did you get him/her? Looks like a CrossBreed to me

Could this be a salmon favorelle bantam?

No, Favorelles have beards, muffs, and 5 toes.

 

[LilJoe]

Color cross? Can you post pucs when she/he is almost or is fully feathered?

 

[Gray Farms]

Doesn't look pure to me. Cochin cross likely.

 

[Alexandra33]

Agreed, most likely a cross.

No I have some of those and mine never had spots this really just the black wing tips. I would love another one though! I'm down to 1 older pair and 2 babies in this mix thanks to critter attacks oh and I got porcelain d'uccles! I highly recommend the crested polish mix and bantam mix I got so many different breeds!

Shouldn't be mixed if from a hatchery.
Do you have a pic of it as a chick?

I don't have a pic but the chick did have a lot of fuzz on it's feet and legs way more than other feather footed chicks. It was really light colored it was very close to the color of my white polish I got at the same time.

 

[Crazy for Chickens!]

Could be a Calico Cochin.

It's a hoover hatchery bird. I ordered online through tractor supply. Should I have gotten a mixed bird from a bantam assortment?

For the past 2 years many of the chicks from our local TSC are either mixed or EXTREMELY poor representatives of their breed. It all depends upon the hatchery utilized by your TSC. So, yes, it is possible that it is a cross bred chick -
