Hello experts

I didn't notice until an hour after I brought her home

that the day old Light Brahma I got today has no leg feathers. I wasn't watching when the lady put the chicks in a box as I had no reason to suspect anything sinister (and I'll not be returning her anyway) but I was wondering about this trait (defect?). The chicks originally came from Ideal Poultry and I'd bought a Light Brahma that came from them before and it had beautiful leg feathering. Is this just an odd chance occurence or does this follow a line genetically? I don't if it has any bearing on it but the last Light Brahma chick I got was a nice bright solid yellow and this one I got today is a grey/yellow mix.

don't know about the legs but mine had feathers early on the toes, the color is right

All my Brahma babies have quite pronounced leg feathers at hatching and that has even applied to Brahma crosses.

SanctusPullus, if it has no leg feathering---it's not a Brahma. Down color on a hatchery bird is really not a good indicator.
