I'm a newbie

[Hilltopchick76]

My name is Sara and I have a 1 yr old flock of 3 rhode island reds and 4 Plymouth barred rock. I had one of my BR's go broody so I took the opportunity to order some chicks. My flock has grown with 16 new babies who arrived this week and are doing great with momma. I now have 5 more PBR, 5 Australorp, and 5 Buff Orpington and 1 mystery chick who is all gray and has furry feet. Would love advice from experienced chicken owners.
Thanks!

1 mystery chick who is all gray and has furry feet.

Could you provide photos? There are a number of breeds with feathered feet.

Sorry for the poor picture quality. The mosquitoes are horrendous right now and I was getting swarmed. I'll try and get better photos/video tomorrow. Bertha (my friend blessed her with the name now that she's a momma) was so good about letting me take "it". I'm sure everyone says this, but my girls are the best. ❤
