Green Queen Bantam pullet or cockerel?

[FatChicksDigMe]

I have an almost 4 week old chick from My Pet Chicken (sourced from Meyer Hatchery in Ohio) that I am unsure which gender or even breed s/he is: the baby is supposed to be a sexed female of their green queen bantam but
1.) It does NOT appear to be bantam (it's super tall and twice the size of my mottled cochin bantam, which was supposedly my biggest bantam [same hatch day]. Its even bigger than my sultan, which isn't a bantam!
2.) It does not look like a female because it's so tall, and independent...

I tried to see what her possible mix is and I think a frizzled cochin bantam, a white crested polish bantam, and perhaps a favaucana bantam (it has 5 toes)....Honestly I'm so confused lol

Kind of young, but looks like a pullet so far. Far to early to say for sure though.

Even with her curly tail and tall stance? I know polish are kinda leggy but I'm not sure what they mixed to get the "green queen bantam". Its weird because she has 5 toes, frizzled wings, what looks like a crest, and a beard.

Many pet quality silkie have 5 toes out here

Stance and behavior aren't good indicators of gender at that young age. I think breed and gender will become more apparent with age. 6 weeks is a good time to re-post if it's not clear by that time.

Yep! I had a few pullets with weird tails at this age. Time will tell. If he were a male, he wont be able to hide it from BYC 🤣

I have no idea on breed though...hatcheries keep adding random mixes so you never really know (unless its a recongized breed).

Yeah she might be part silkie, but honestly I'm just perplexed by her features.

I looked at their website and found some possible ingredients lol

I would guess Fauvacana, but am hoping for an update on the chick!
