Help identify my mystery chick

[ashreeb]

I got this chick at a local feed and seed store, it was in with the bantam mix chicks although I'm not 100% sure it's even a bantam.

How many toes does she have? Five could indicate silkie genetics.

No extra toes, silkie was my first thought as well but it's leg is also not completely feathered.

hmm, it has blue skin. So if it's not a silkie... I'm thinking maybe bantam easter egger?

Yeah but what about the random feathers on its legs? Do some Easter eggers have fuzzy legs?

I would guess Partridge Silkie. Does your baby have a 5th toe?

Nope no extra toe and it's legs are not completely feathered.

Hmm....seems as though you might have a Silkie mix, in that case?

Just strange that a mix would have come from a feed and seed that gets their chicks from a hatchery, I'm sure it's possible though.

Looks like a Partridge Silkie. Probably hatchery quality, since it doesn't have heavy feathering, or a fifth toe. But, this will help, do you know what comb type it has? Or could you post a pic. Hatchery quality silkies generally have single combs, but it may have a walnut!
