Is she a Faverolle??

This little girl was giving me quite the headache trying to figure out her breed... Is my sweet, cuddly little Snuggles a Faverolle?

5 toesies.

My faverolles had very puffy cheeks....

Faverolles have a beard/muffs as do Sultans. Plus, Sultans would have crests. Does it have beard/muffs and/or a crest?

Nope, not a faverolle. Faverolle's have muffs/beards and 5 toes.

It might be a light brahma - does it have a pea comb? (looks like little bumps) If it has a comb like the cochin, then it's another cochin.

What she has is a little more down on the back of her neck and a puffier chest than the cochins and silkie. 5 toesies, both feet. Feathered feet. Yellow skin. 1 week old. Super sweet.. more so than my Silkies. I think there is a little more fluff below her earlobes there..


If you don't think she is a Faverolle or Sultan.. and shes definitely not a Silkie... Does anyone know of another Bantam breed with Feathered feet, 5 toes, & yellow skin? I would really appreciate the help!

She may just be a Cochin with extra toes. Those are the only feather legged chicks with 5 toes. If she starts growing a crest, then I would say she's a Sultan but I doubt she's a Faverolle. Most hatcheries carry salmon Faverolles so you would be seeing those colors coming out in her wings already. White Faverolles are rare.
