I'm pretty sure Bukowski is.... A Welsummer?

So I posted in late April when she was just about 4 weeks. I adopted her on April 1st, so she's about 14 weeks now!
She's just the cuddliest bantie I've ever been around. I love taking her around to meet other people and everyone falls in love with her! I'd just like to be able to tell people more than "She's a14 week-old mini-chicken who has a stubby toe."

You can see on her left foot has a stubby middle toe.. Well she was attacked by my friend's rat and had to have half her toe amputated. Took about a week and a half to completely heal, but she doesn't favor it at all.

Probably and OEGB (old english game bantam)

I'm definitely no expert, but she looks too small and slender to be a Welsummer. I bought two Welsummer hens for my grandfather and they were quite large and thick-set hens. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.

She's a bantam. I've looked up photos of a few breeds like her but the ones that resemble her the most are Welsummers. OEGB were also a possibility but they seem to have longer legs?

She does not look like a Welsummer but an OEGB of Wheaton color because of her structure and possibly white or pearl earlobes than red. Her legs are white and the Welsummers must be yellow.

I know of four breeders here in the US that raises Welsummer Bantams and she does not look like any of them.

the sun is most likely the reason her legs look white.. but they look like this when they're not washed out in the sun.

I was leaning toward OEGB myself on that one. OEGs can be all sorts of colours, and she's quite long in the leg for a Welsummer as well.

Bantam Welsummers are pretty rare, looks like an OEGB to me.
