Mystery chick

[Medodge]

Got my spring chicks Wednesday!
We had one free surprise chick. These are from McMurray hatchery. I didn’t order any feather footed so this little guy doesn’t fit in.
Feet are yellow so my guess is Blue Cochin bantam.
Anyone else have a guess?

Thanks in advance

Got a picture or two of him?

 

[Medodge]

Sorry. They were loading slow

 

[GirlsHuntToo]

Nope that’s okay!

I would have to say that you are correct, it indeed looks like a blue Cochin. So beautiful!

 

[Medodge]

Thank you for your response.

 

[GirlsHuntToo]

You're welcome!

Anyone else wanna take a look?

Was your order for bantam or standard breeds?

Nvm. They have both bantam and standard sized blue cochins. Should match your order: bantam with bantam, standard with standard.

My order was for large fowl. I’ve never had bantams. But this one sure is smaller than the others

Could be a day or so behind the others in the hatch. It's unusual for them to put a bantam in with LF, but could happen. Either way, looks like a blue cochin. They don't have any other feather footed blue breeds, and that one is obviously blue.
