Roo or Hen bantam (breed still unknown)

Is my little chick a Lilly or Lenny

age?

That comb sure does look bright red.

 

[Frazzemrat1]

agreed. Age is key for how big and bright that comb is.

That first pic does it seem to be getting the settle feathers? They look like the curving down a bit. If I'm wrong please correct me still learning. ^.^

That's all dependent on age. If its over 12 weeks, then you look at the saddle feathers. Males are slender and pointy, flowing. Females are rounded and poof.

Looks kind of like a roo to me, and seems like he's gonna have a rose comb. The colors look like either lavender or splash, not really sure about the breed, though.

Wondering if he's a blue rose comb bantam?

EDT: Rose Comb Bantam is a breed. A weirdly named breed, but a breed. In case that wasn't clear.

Definitely a clean legged rose comb bantam...

He/she is about 4-5 wks old. Definitely a clean legged, rose comb bantam. Another post suggested he/she was an OE Game bird or Bearded D'Anver....

Does he have a beard? (Antwerp/D'anver?) Because, even ignoring the rosecomb, he's built nothing like any OEGB I've ever seen...

EDT: Okay, I think I can make out the beginnings of a beard. I'm gonna go with Blue Antwerp. Definitely not an OEGB.
