Bantam Naked Neck (Cochin mix?)

[Eckielady]

I *think* it's about 20 weeks old. May be a little older but I'm not sure. Thought it was a silkie mix at first but now I'm thinking a bantam cochin/naked neck mix. Body looks just like my Cochins. Anyway, comb worries me but I'm not sure on these bantams. Only been here a couple of days so no eggs or crowing.

Interesting looking cockerel.

Yes, it's a cockerel. I think there must be Silkie in there somewhere because of the tiny crest feathers. Unless he's just having a bad day.

Yes, he is a cockerel. Going by the light leg feathering, vulture hocks, the fifth toe and white skin. I'd say he is a Sultan/Naked Neck cross.

 

[Crazy for Chickens!]

I would say he probably has some silkie in him. His feathers look a little fuzzy to me.

Ya, I think he was someone's failed project.

I was calling him a silkie mix but I'm pretty sure he only has 4 toes so I wasn't sure.
