This chick was completely mislabeled in the store, I think. She was in a bin labeled Sapphire Olive Egger which should be a Cream Crested Legbar mix. After looking up numerous images and comparing to what the hatchery offers, I think maybe she's a Cochin?? She's black with white around her mouth, a little at the eyes, white neck, and butt. Sorry, one pic is pretty blurry, but it shows she has feathered legs/feet. She's two weeks old now and her black wing feathers show a little brown tinge to them. She came from Hoover's Hatchery in IA. They just show a Cochin variety pack (basically) on their site, that are not bantam so I wouldn't know which one she would be out of that. I don't believe she's bantam, she seems the right size for a standard chicken at this age. What do you think? Cochin, something else?
Update: the hatchery just told me this should be a french black copper marans. Doesn't 100% look like chicks of that breed, so still confused. LOL
Thank you!
