Can you ID this new chick?*UPDATE page 3*

[Woods_Woman]

Hi all the new one is doing wonderful. Not looking so tired anymore, no more problems with Pasty butt, I sure hope it turns out to be a hen. Thank you all for your input and help I really appreciate everyone's info. Here are couple updated pic's I took this morning of it looking less sad. I wonder if it will stay this color? Many of you have guessed Lavender? It's such a sweet little critter, just glad it's no longer suffering cause some employee didn't want to clean a little poop. I really feel if these folks at these farm supply stores are going to be selling chicks they should at least take care of them. What I did for this little chick was so simple anyone could have done it..They make me angry

The color sure looks it! But I feel like I am the only one who agrees with the original thought of it not being Cochin - Am I the only one who thinks the body is too upright, the wings are too downwards dragged, and the tail too erect to be a Cochin?

It wouldn't have good type since Lavendar Cochins are a work in progress.
I have a theory, what if Ideal is working on a LC project, they did add Lav. Silkies not to long ago, they may just not have listed them forsale on their website yet.

I think I'll call tomorrow and find out what hatchery they use.

Ideal has Self Blue Cochins. Isn't that the same as Lavendar?

from what I understand Self Blue and Lavender are one in the same.

Looks like a cochin bantam. And the color looks like lavender or a very light blue color with white in it's wings. It could also be splash.
And I think it's look like a pullet.

Here are pics of some of my lavender ones to compare.

Here you got a splash chick (she looks pretty mutch like your little one in the color, right?), crossbreed between cochin and Isbar.

Same little girl but older.

And here is the mother (when she had'nt start laying yet).

Called the store today and they said they order in locally, and she thought the cochin's come from a Dunlap Hatchery. Who knows I too am leaning toward Lavender on the color, I guess well see how it feathers up. Thanks again everyone for your replies.
