Help ID this chick's breed, and sex.

Alright well I learned something about feathers, and I think the breed still may be up in the air, but I'll do some research on the BBRed. Which isn't that the same thing as an Easter Egger almost?

BBred is the color, you want to look in "Old english games" (Most commonly known for their "bantams" ) and are called OEGBs,

Looks like a BBRed Old English pullet (bantam). They are so sweet. Make great mothers.

wait wait wait, back up hold the phone, stop the car, close the door. Thats a leghorn... it has yellow leg (or looks like it) Old englishs have white legs, and i think the rocks would be bigger body wise

Agree with DTChickens...Leghorn pullet.

If its around 4 weeks old, it must be a standard size chicken. Its to big for a banty.

That bird is not 4 weeks old, I agree with someone up there who said 10-12 weeks old. At that age, with that comb and tail, it's a female.

Too small to be a leghorn. Unless it's a brown leghorn bantam, but they're not too common, probably not found at a feed store. I've only found bantam leghorns at Sandhill Preservation, and you're lucky if your feed store buys from them.

I'd guess Old English Game, with off-colored legs.

Can't be a bantam, because the store doesn't carry them "EVER".

I know that she is of the OEGame family and no she isn't small enough to be a banty per say, but she is a pullet and I will venture to say that her age is around 6 months old as one of my OE Game Hens hens was born in the 2nd week of June 08 and her comb is around the same size, mine has white legs while the other OE Game Hen I have has an off white look in the legs and mine are considered standard size and females of this class weigh appr 4.5 lbs grown!
