I'm stumped, any ideas?

[The-White-Elephant]

Hope y'all are having a good day so far!

So, about 2 weeks ago, I hatched chicks. All was fine, got 18 chicks in all. Well, one egg hatched, and I have no clue who the parents could be. To give a little backstory: I have 13 hens, 4 EE's, 2 OE's, 3 WJG's, and 3 Cochins. Al these were bred to an Appenzeller Spitzhauben rooster.

Now, the egg that the chick hatched from, was a brownish colored egg, no idea who could have laid it. I thought a WJG could have, but one of them lays pointy pink eggs, and the other is broody. The 3rd WJG hasn't laid an egg in months, so she's out of the picture.

So that leaves the Cochins. Except, the chick has no feathered feet. Any ideas?

P.S.: This is just for fun

What is the breed of the last hen?

I have 13 hens, 4 EE's, 2 OE's, 3 WJG's, and 3 Cochins.

I only counted 12 in your breed description!

Otherwise I would think maybe your broody girl laid the egg before she went broody?

Whoops! Always get confused! It's 12 hens

The breed of the last hen? The One that hasn't laid in months?

I know it can't be the broody, I just got the same colored eg today

You could try doing a tag list? Everyone is probably glued to the incubators!

Do you know the colors your EE & OE lay?

Yeah, the OE's lay dark green, with an occasional grey egg, and the EE's lay blue, at least the last time I checked.

But how? She hasn't laid for as long as I can remember. Saw her lay once, and that's it, but that was months ago.
