Mystery chick

[mrshafer5]

I got 7 chicks from meyer hatchery in polk ohio. One was a meyer meal maker which you donate the eggs or meat dealers choice. It's a free pullet(the yellow one) but a random breed has anyone done this any ideas only a couple weeks old. Thank you byc.

I think it might be too young to tell. I know they had New Hampshire Reds as their meal maker a couple of weeks ago but it changes daily. If you're really curious, maybe you can call Meyer, they might have a record of what they were including that day.

I'm no expert on breeds, but check for five toes and if it has five toes, it's a silkie. Also, if there's feathers on the feet, that rules out a lot of breeds. Although it doesn't really look like you have either, but check anyways.
It'll be fun to have a surprise though!

Silkies have all black skin. They are very distinctive.

It's NO silkie, for certain. But much to young to offer any meaningful observation

Their website says they will send a chick similar to your order. If you pullets, they will send a female chick. If you order meat chickens, they will send a meat chicken. So what did you order?

Is there any way you could get clearer pictures so we can see more features, please? It's pretty hard to identify without seeing comb type, leg color, ect..
