Do Ameraucanas have 5 toes?

I just got some in recently for a friend and they were the cutest chicks ever. Even cuter than Ameraucanas and even silkies.
I was very tempted to keep this one!View attachment 2668859

The chick pictured doesn't have leg fluff, so I'm leaning towards a Dorking.

Oh My goodness what is that little poof of cuteness?

Missed that very obvious feature. Whoopsies. Yes, no footsie fluff. Still appears bearded though.

Or just extra fluffy.

No worries, I miss some details sometimes.

Does not look quite as yellow as the Faverolle and yes I missed the lack of leg feathering, too.
Wonder how the hatchery mixed a Dorking up with an Ameraucana?

The comb is a pea comb, which a Dorking shouldn't have. Maybe an accidental crossing happened without the hatchery knowing?

You can always ask them at the hatchery about this odd bird. If it's directly from the Ameraucana group, then it's probably a random mutation like I suggested before.

Their chicken ID team is currently looking at the pics I sent them. You guys are certain this isn't Ameraucana right?
