can you guess the breed and color pattern of this chicken?

Thought I'd post this for fun to see if anyone can get it right

Hint: he is a mixture of 2 breeds. I don't know what the color pattern will be though and if anyone has any chicks with this same pattern (not necessarily same colors) I'd love to see how they turn out

He is 8 weeks old in this pic

same bird 5 weeks old

A cochin and wyndotte mix?

Red columbian or red incomplete columbian. Is this from a mille fleur project?

 

[thecochincoop]

I was thinking red columbian but have never seen a columbian chick and yes his daddy is a mille fleur cochin

change "red" to "buff," and I'll agree. As for breeds, my guess was cochin X brahma.

I think your looking at a cross between a mille fleur and some kind of cochin. the little guy is just adorable!

Mille fleur is a colour pattern, not a breed. It is found in many breeds.
