Breed ideas? 3weeks old

[clickdb]

im trying to identify this little chick, sold as a white leghorn. It appears to have barring on its wings, so I'm really not sure what it is. I contacted the feed store I got them at, and after much discussion learned that his "hatchery" chicks are from a local "breeder"... So no ideas what its potential breeds are.
Thanks for looking!

My best guess is it could be a Delaware,

HOWEVER,

Since it came from a local breeder, and the feed store wasn't sure, it really could be anything including a farmyard mix.

Perhaps time will tell.

I agree with LofMc.

I appreciate the guesses, and given its source you are probably right about it being a mix... As long as it ends up giving me eggs I'll be fine with it. I thought about the Delaware angle too, it does look a little like the other dels I have when they were chicks. I'll post again in a few weeks to see how it's grown.

You're welcome. We should be able to get a better bead on its identity in a few weeks.

That's a deleware.

Update: the chick is a little Delaware cockerel. Thanks for the input guys.
