Olive Egger or BCM?

[Mycozyhomestead]

Just wondering what others think of my baby chick. Sold to me as an Olive Egger but also looks like it could be a BCM? Thanks for any insight !

To me, she looks like an Olive Egger, but I could be wrong. You might have to wait until she's full grown and laying before knowing for sure. I have two BCMs and three Olive Eggers. One of the OEs looks just like a BCM. The only way I know that she's not one is by her hackles. They're a lighter color, the color goes all around, and down her chest with a different thickness of the markings to them. If I didn't have both breeds, I would think she was a BCM, not an OE.

Thank you for your reply! I guess I will know for sure when she lays her first egg then
