mystery breed & unsure gender: approx 8 weeks.

i don't know what breed this is, he was in my "adopted" pack from the hatchery. judging by the color of the comb, it looks like a "maybe" rooster to me. however, i have nothing to compare him to, as the rest of them are different breeds. any guesses on breed/sex? he has a strange comb...pea comb it looks like, especially when u see it straight on. He starts most of the sparing, but i know some hens are just really dominant, too.

I think that is likely a pullet. It looks like a white Chantecler, I think.

Easter Egger cockerel most likely.

White Chantecler should have yellow legs. EE should have slate legs. I'm buffaloed. Looks like a pullet, what ever it is.

I agree with the pullet assessment (for now), but got nothing on the breed!

It's definitely a white chicken.

Oh okay!
Maybe a mixed breed?

 

[lazy gardener]

Maybe, but hatchery stock should not be so mixed up.

That's true... hmmmm...

wow. interesting mixed opinions, but everybody has such good points; i don't think i can rule anyone's opinion out. i'll keep watching & see what happens as she/he further matures.
