So one of my Austurlorps went broody, laying 15 eggs and 3 of them hatched. The chicks are black, two of them feathered feet, but 4 toes, but then one of them has plain feet and 5 toes. The dad is either Winter, one of my silkie Roosters, Cloud, another one of my silkie roosters, or Fred, my mille fleur d'uccle rooster. Could they all be mixed? And if so, whick ones are which??
 
I have what I think is a Mille Fleur D'Uccle rooster and hen. They have feathered feet and the body shape of a d'Uccle, but they don't have beards! in April I will have had them for a year, and the hen is already laying and they are I believe fully grown, Are they pure bred? I got then from TSC.
 
Tractor supply generally doesn't carry the best quality of chicks from my experiences. Do they have a single comb? Can you post a picture?
yes, They do have single combs, I will try and get a pic of the rooster because the hen is very skittish. The rooster is friendly
 
I hatched out some Austurlorp wyndotte mixed chicks an they had four toes (all my chickens do) but theyre feet are palish color an black. An now that they are ten weeks mainly the tops an legs are black. And they both look like Austurlorps. Heres one of them from a week ago you can sorta see the coloring in the feet. But time will tell.

Australorps have black feet, But Wyndottes have yellow(Or white) it may be a skin pigment thing from both parents. I've heard of that before in silkies
