Help, I picked up this adorable chick! What bantam breed?

400


So this photo of Moneypenny was taken about 2 weeks ago.... She no longer has any yellow and is all black and white.
 
Hi! So I'm very very new to 'chicken-ing' (LOVE IT!!!!) .... i have a question about Old English Game Bantams... because I think i might have one. Moneypenny's legs started out a normal chicken color but have since turned a greenish blue (freaked me out when i saw it... thought she had lost circulation to her legs- minor heart failure! no one told me chickens legs change color- or could!).... and she's black and white mottled... her comb is very small- almost non existent right now (about 6 weeks old) and yellow in color... I will try to post photos of her later... I just love her coloring!  She is very inquisitive and talkative. Not very cuddly, but will come and eat treats from my hand. Are OEGB's the only breed that has greenish legs? I didn't realize there are SO MANY breeds of chickens! Wow! :)
Easter Eggers have them and there is another breed of chicken that looks just like a oegb but it's called something else. I'll have to look on that breed. It has green legs.
 
Hi there I under stand you really want to know the breed of this chick now, but to be 100% sure what it is truly maybe you should wait untill it lays a egg (Hen) or wait until it fully feather's out fully (Rooster).
 
thank you all so much! after looking at more photos of silver sebrights... i believe you are correct about Moneypenny!
