New Chicks - What Breed is This?

Hi

We received a batch of chicks today. They were out of a breed I asked for so we got a random chick from their “assorted rare breed”.

It’s about half the size of the other chicks (Orpingtons and marans).

Anyone know what this little one is? I thought maybe black Sumatra but it doesn’t look like the skin is black (although hard to tell).

Thanks!

What an interesting chick!
It's hard to tell breed when they're this young sometimes. Many chicks of different breeds can appear similar.
Can you update us as it grows?
What comb type does it have?
Here she is at about 6.5 weeks. Still doesn’t have black skin!
