It has feathers on its feet and legs, looks to have a pea comb, and at two weeks old only has a few little wing feathers. It is a bantum from TSC.

Its wing is small and very puffy.

I believe it could be a Silkie, but I don't know much about that particular breed

Thanks

NOT a silkie--silkies have 5 toes and have black skin throughout-Im not sure what you have but its cute!

 

[donjr]

I had no idea that silkies had 5 toes. You are very wise. Thank you.

Dont' silkies have a knob on their heads too? I have no idea but I thought they did.

Pea comb and feathered shanks - it's a light brahma.

The knob is a vault-top notch etc.. MOst breed for it to make the head dressing huge and have feathers that stand taller-looks nice-the down side is ...it can be a death wish amongst the silkies--one good bonk on that soft spot ( it's a hole in the skull like a newborn baby) and they could become paralized or die. It's happened to me with some of my gorgeous ones. Sometimes they get wry neck to and if treated right away can go away-it's heart breaking really that a quality people look for and want can be devestating at the smae time:-(

I am hoping it is a light brahma, They are beautiful.
