Hello! Any idea what breed this chick is? She is lightly feathered down the legs. Thank you!!

Thank you everyone for your responses! I’ll post more pics as she gets older.

Hi again, everyone! Same chick at 4.5 weeks. Still thinking Maran or Olive Egger maybe? Not sure if the sex still? Any thoughts from you expert chicken friends? Thank you for any advice!

That is looking like a cockerel, for sure. Do EEs ever have feathered feet? I have never seen one that does.

Olive eggers can if they used a marans with feathered feet as a parent.

Oh yeah, good point. I would definitely say one or the other, but they do look like a Maran for sure.

Duh, you said OE, sorry about that

No worries! Most OEs still don’t have feathered legs here, but my new one does

I think those are still the most likely options.

Probably male, given the size and color of the comb and wattles at such a young age.
