So last month i got a chick with fluffy legs and feet, and since that month i was wondering what breed he could be that contains feathery or fluffy feet. Right now he is developing actual feathers from his toes... what breed develops long looking feet feathers like this?

It would help if you also post a picture of the face and comb.

Where did you get the chick?

Feathered feet could be on a Brahma (pea comb) or on a Cochin or Marans (single comb for both) or on a Salmon Faverolle (single comb, muff/beard on face).

Other breeds with feathered feet include Sultan (has a crest on the head, so not that) and Silkie (has feathers that look like fur, so not that either.)

Of course, a mixed breed that includes a feather-foot parent can also have feathered feet.

I got him from a barn as well as the naked neck in the corner, heres a pic of his head...

Looks like a single comb and no muff/beard, so probably Cochin (common breed), or possibly a Marans (rare breed) or a mix that includes one of those. Cochin-crosses are pretty common in barnyard-mix flocks.
