I just received this pretty chick and I cannot find any similar chicks in the online pics. She or he is a hatchery choice from an unidentified mix of Bantams.
The red heat lamp messes with the color. It's pale yellow with gray to black on its back and clean yellow feet & legs. It is plain all over except for the back saddle.

What hatchery did you get it from? In the second picture, is that a small bump on it's head? What type of comb does it have?
 
It came from Cackle.
There's no discernable head bump or top knot. The side has been missed up with my wet, dirty fingers.
 
I looked up what Cackle had for bantams, and it looks like that chick is a Silver Sebright. Here's a picture of a chick with similar markings from Murray McMurray Hatchery:

Thank you for the reasearch! Except for the lack of black on the shoulders. I'd say it's really close!
Here is a couple of new photos of that chick. Its head is narrow and smaller. There are no eye markings. She's pink and clean legged. Sleeping now so I can't count toes just now. 🦶 Her tail is coming in almost a mirror to the wings.
I keep seeing the Bantam Columbian Wyandotte...

Four toes no fingers!

I looked around at some pictures of this breed and I found this picture:

That middle chick looks very similar! If you are willing, I'd love to see more pictures as this chick grows. (By time it's an adult, it should be pretty obvious what it is.)
 
More pics...
BTW she's pink marked under the chin denoting a rare breed.

That middle chick looks like she did at that age.
Since then, there's a definate gray moving up the neck.
I'll continue to post progressive photos, too.
Thank you LDW!
