Hello! We are enjoying watching our broody care for her 12 chicks. I sit with them and want to get them use to people but haven't really picked them up much. I kept seeing what I thought was extra toes but really have no clue. Curiosity finally got the best of me today. Lol I would love some ideas of what could possibly be mixed in somewhere down the line. Doesn't really matter, but I am having a lot of fun with all these mixes to guess!
These chicks are from a mix of hens, though I believe they are all full breeds. Rooster is most likely the rescue barnyard mix considering the other is a ayan cemeni (spelling?).

I'm seeing 5 toes, and feathered feet.
So at least one parent should have 5 toes, and at least one parent should have feathered feet.

If the chicks have different mothers but the feet and toes match, it's probably from the father. (Unless the mothers are a mix of Faverolles, Sultans, Silkies, and other breeds with feathered 5-toe feet.)

Do you have a picture of the rooster's feet?
