I love the Sulky comment!

But on the goldtop thing. That would make sence for that chicken because of her coloring. But what if it is white and black, with a few smuges of yellow, which I don't know where that comes from. Unless she is just dirty.. Mine is White Silkie and Light Sussex cross. Mom is the silkie and dad is the sussex.

Oh, She does have 5 toes and the feathered shanks.. She so far seems to be on the smaller side. Not near as big as the Sussex, but she is still growing.. Shoot for all I know she may end up being a rooster. But I'm pretty sure she is a she.. Any thoughts........

Laree had a bird that looked like the black one... in fact it's her avitar...
