I got 4 "assorted bantams" about a week ago. Chick A is a white silkie, chick B is a black frizzle cochin, I think chick C is a splash cochin, but I am not sure on chick D. It has feathered legs and a single comb. It seems slightly slimmer than the cochins, and its feathers are different. They are more "fuzzy" than regular feathers, but not as much as a silkie, and don't curve upward as much as a frizzle. I'm puzzled! Any idea what breed and/or color chick D is? (Pictures below)

Blue or mottled frizzle is my guess.
 
Frizzled bantam blue or blue mottle cochin. Does chick A have black skin, 5 toes, and a crest? It doesn't really look like a silkie.

A blue frizzle cochin! Oh I hope so! Thank you! And yes, the first one is for sure a silkie (I just didn't get a very good picture of it). It's got black skin, five toes, a crest and a beard, and is EXTRA fluffy :)
