Mystery Chick Breed

[tdkmom]

Last year when I ordered my meat birds they sent a surprise chick and it was a beautiful pure white Large Fowl Cochin female. She's the first one that went broody but she's deadly to mess with on her nest!
The other surprise chick in another batch was a Silver Phoenix Rooster. My son loves him so I gave him his own pen with 3 Greenfire Frisian Gulls, he's quite content and has a good attitude.

That's what I was thinking to do also. A separate coop with his own little hens. My husband is going to hate me. The number of outbuildings keeps growing. Chicken coop, 2nd chicken coop, rabbit hutch shed, goat shed. And all with appropriate runs. We have 80 acres. I want like 10. That's not too much to ask is it?!

That's funny but true, the whole time it was growing up I kept going back and forth in my head wondering if it was the Silver Leghorn or the Phoenix.

Yes my Single Comb Brown Leghorns are way bigger than this chick is.
