Good evening.

This is Jazz. She (I am pretty sure) was picked up outside the studio I assist teach dance at. She's severely under weight and probably molting (or at some point many of her feathers were removed). She's had her break clipped as well

I'm hoping to identify possible breeds to know what my target weight for her is as I try to get her back up to a good weight

Characteristics:

4 toes
Black skin
Photos below show comb and feathers.

I have no clue on age at all can't help with egg color either (hoping she doesn't make any till she gains a lot more weight).

Guesses? Photos with and without flash because my shower is darker and so is she. I can't get more photos if we need other angles

Maybe some sort of maran if it’s a hen but that’s looking like a roo hmmm. Marans are white skinned but some are darker than others but if a too not a maran, Ausrolorps have no foot feathers, other than that I’ll research for you but you got a weird one hope he/she gets back to being healthy
 
I've never had this breed. Generally then like older people the more white on the head the older?

I'm not looking for anything from her other than regaining her health.
Commonly old chickens may spring a few white feathers, on the head, maybe thighs, or maybe in the wings. Head is more common though.
