Got this chick at 2 weeks old now 4 weeks from a mystery box and was told it was a dark Brahma.. clearly not from the get go but im so curious now as to what she/he is. Lots of silky traits with the dark skin and legs, Walnut comb, feathered head crest but crossed with something? Any ideas?

Welcome to the site, by the way! :welcome
 
I'm thinking it could be a mix of some sort
There's a crest forming. Based on the way the crest looks, perhaps a parent (or grandparent, etc) might be a Crested Cream Legbar?
It has very black legs, so "fibro" crosses... I'm guessing Ayam Cemani in the mix. I'm not sure it has Silkie qualities

Maybe an Easter Egger

I can see some fluffy cheeks developing!
 
It's an adorable little barnyard mix and possibly not even a first generation cross. For a decent shot at guessing, the seller would need to be honest about what they have. Given that they sold it as a dark Brahma, I don't think that is likely to happen. So, you may never know what went into the mix. That shouldn't stop you from enjoying it for the unique chicken that it is
