Ok so I am pretty positive that this chick is a mister...any ideas on what to name him, or even the breed? He is a couple weeks old.

*Here he is..

*and this is why I am pretty sure he is a he. See the little red wattles already...

They both look like roos to me. I don't have any ideas on names or breeds. I have never been good with names or breeds. But they definently both looks like roos to me.
 
I don't think it's a cochin, because cochin feathers cover the middle toe.
 
They don't look like silkies either. They (silkies) have poofy heads, black skin and different feathers.

They don't always, no. If it is from poor breeding stock, which many hatcheries are, it may have minimal feathering. I have had hatchery cochin chicks with no feathering to the toe.
