I can't find my other post, and she looks a little better now that she has settled and I took better pics of her... or him. I don't know that either.

I got her from a lady that said she was from the bantam bin at TSC. She is as big as a 1-2 week old silkie chick and she herself should be around 1-2 weeks old.

Thank you. Again, im saying "She" but I have no idea if its a pullet. Also what color is She/he? Also... it would be great!!! If you can post a picture of the chicken / chick you think she is so I can compare myself. Thanks!!!


 
Does anyone have any ideas?

Same size as a two and a half week silkie chick. It is also the same age.


I called Mt. healthy and the only thing it could be is what they call "Mille Fleur" Which to them is a breed. I told them yes, that is a color, but what breed is it she kept saying Bantam Mille Fleur.

:( Really want to know...
 
The wing tips look a lot like my Buff Brahma Bantum...but no feathers on the legs, so I have no clue....but it's adorable

Thanks all. I will add a new pic tonight or tomorrow.

I just am so stumped.

It kinda looks like a bantam RIR, but... I called and they said no that wouldnt be in the assorted bantam bin.
 
lol I know its hard to wait... but it looks like you will just have to wait till this ones older to solve the mistery.

But hey.. she might suprise you!

One that I was SURE was another *grumbles* black cochin from TS.... turned out to be a golden laced instead ;)
 
I have one that looks just like yours, got her from TSC too. I was leaning towards a rir but if the hatchery doesn't have rir I'm excited to see what they will be!
 
Korban - Do you have a picture?

Yeah... UUUUUGH I hate waiting lmao but I guess that's what makes things really fun and worth it in the end :)
 
Aww, she is a pretty little baby!

Thought I'd mention- you're right, Mille Fleur is a color. The bantam breed d'Uccle is commonly called a Mille Fleur. I suppose it's because Mille Fleur is a common color for d'Uccles.

The person you were talking to was probably talking about a d'Uccle. However, d'Uccles have feathered feet- and your baby doesn't. I'm kind of stumped on her. x) But I am with 4-H Chicken Mom on the color- she looks like she'll be a Golden-laced something. :)

Keep us posted! It'll be interesting to see what she is! :)
