Cochin? Female? And what's with it's head??

[BackyardCoop]

I just wanted to give everyone an update on my chick!
It's definitely a fighter and doing well. I believe that I have a roo on my hands.

Here are some newer pictures! Still not sure of what kind of chick it is but he still melts my heart and am so glad that I kept him!

I think he'll always have a bump on his head but he is starting to feather nicely there.

Yeah I have. He's just a scragely thing I guess.
