I have had consistent blue and splash chicks with my Blue Coppers Marans, Black copper Marans, and Cuckoo Marans. I recently started breeding them with my Cochins. In the big hen living area our squirrly Blue Silkie jumps the fence 😏 I have an assortment of hens in there. I had been collecting everyone’s eggs to incubate and play with. Then I got this chick…

It does not have black feet. 5 toes! To me its feathers are looking like they are going to frizzle. Any input? Would this be splash? All my splashes haven’t been this crazy colored at 2 weeks. Am I wrong about frizzle and it’s either a blue cochin or blue maran x?
I need to get organized I think 🤭

I don't think it's going to be a frizzle, but it's sure going to be pretty!!

Here's a nearly two-week-old frizzle, pet-quality silkie for comparison.

yes! Thank you! I forgot the looks of the baby stage! What breed is this chick? I have another I’m contemplating that resembles this one a little. I’m almost sure it’s my blue silkie hen with Mille fleur D’Uccle rooster. It’s still cold here so they are all hanging in the garage. Making babies 😂

No clue but it's so darned cute! I hope someone comes along that knows!

Looks like a silkie mix to me
 
That is a cute chick! Love the colors!

I'm no expert on breed mixes, but just for another comparison, this was my frizzle at around a week old.

Adorable! I’m thinking a silkie mix like some suggested. They still keep lightly flipping day by day
