Re: what breed is this

Definitely an Easter Egger.

It was sent in my ornamental layer assortment from mcmurrays. I have about three of these.
Now to figure out the one that look like chipmunks. I can't believe how much the change week by week

Looks like an Easter Egger to me, too.

They are suppose to be one of their rare breeds. Of course it could be the free chick they give you. I have three that look like this one.

This is their "rarest of the rare" breed list (I take issue with some of them being considered rare) - and it includes their "Araucana", which are actually EE

Yes I actually got what they call an ornamental layer selection. I only got 15 plus the free chick because I don't want a lot of roosters. It is fun to watch them grow and try to figure out what they are.

My point in listing that was that the Ornamental Layer mix comes from "our rarest of the rare and top hat special" -- since the chick in question does not come from the top hat side of things that means it would be from the list above.
