I wonder if the breeder has any kind of meat birds, and one of them got mixed in?View attachment 3843204It’s the massive chest and thick neck! I feel like that comb is eager to turn red. This chick is doing my head in.. everything screams boy to me but then he’s developing quite slow he definitely has thick legs though.. and thick toes.
She doesn’t breed meat birds! She has Perkins, light sussex, barnevelders, Plymouth rocks, australorp, Vorwerk, silkie, Polish. It’s such a mystery to me. It’s 9 weeks old now & I have no further clarity on its breed or sex!I wonder if the breeder has any kind of meat birds, and one of them got mixed in?
There are a few breeds where even the females have big breasts and thick legs. For example, purebred Cornish chickens:

Based on the color of the chick, I do not expect actual Cornish to be in the mix, but they are the first example I could find of hens with big breasts and thick legs.
The common Cornish Cross meat chickens also have big breasts and thick legs, and so do many of the "ranger" type meat chickens.

It’s such a mystery! I have read that sussex chickens are slow to develop. Your cockerel above looks to have a larger comb than I imagine mine would develop over the next week?I sure hope its a pullet.
But Im not 100% convinced she is because of the bantam Sussex chicks I had last year.
The male chick was clear very early because the breeder knew the colouring. But he developed very slow in relation to the male Vorwerk and Dutch I had too.
Almost 12 weeks old speckled Sussex pullet and cockerel
