Partridge Cochin Chick? Updated - 6 week old pic

[MelanieR]

This chick (the dark one not the roo red star) was my free exotic chick from my last Murray McMurray Hatchery order. It's DEFINITELY a feathered footed. I was thinking maybe a Partridge Cochin Bantam? he/she is very skittish so I apologize for the lack of a decent picture, but this one does show his wings, coloring and legs nicely.

I have a LF partridge cochin chick that looks a lot like that.

Looks just like my partridge cochin. Mine is not a bantam though. If you look at my pictures in my profile, I have one dated May 14, 2012. She is 2 weeks old in the picture. Unfortunately, I think "she" is a "he.". We may have to change her name from Princess Jasmine to Aladdin! Actually, I'm going to need to find it a new home if it starts crowing

Updated picture... I'm no longer thinking bantam because he's rather big and his legs are SUPER long...

Anybody venture to guess what breed he is?



I think he might be part ostrich.... look at those legs!!!!

And man is he FAST!

His whole life has been a "weird stage." He's the oddest looking thing I've ever seen!!!
Thanks for the answer.
