Need help with this girl

[JewelCG]

About four weeks ago we bought six assorted bantam chicks from Tractor Supply. These are the first chickens we've ever owned and have had a great time watching them develope. It's been fun trying to guess gender and breed.

Five of them are a good size and we're sure that four are hens and one a rooster. The sixth is.. well.. different. She is very tiny, at least half the size of the others despite feathering out and appearing in every other way normal.

We suspect she might be a silver button quail. We need help to try identifying her.

She is probably a Bantam if she is half fhe size of the other chicks.

The other chicks are bantams. She's half the size of them.

Looks to be an Old English Game bantam (possibly Splash), which is one of the smallest bantam breeds. Too adorable!

Old English Game bantam, definently not a quail.

Maybe she is just a teeny tiny bantam. Cute!

Thanks everyone.

I would much prefer her to be a chicken instead of a quail. She's the sweetest of the bunch and I really like her.
