I dont have any pics rite this second but i grabbed 6 bantam chicks from local feed store and i knew almost rite away wat they all were and i thot 1 in particular was a red cochin at first. Then i changed my mind and thot it was a mille fleur duccle. I just got done lookin at its feet though and it has 5 toes! It looks like a red cochin and its starting to get little black spots on its wings. theyre bout 2 weeks old. Is there such a thing as salmon faverolle bantams? Or is there another breed with 5 toes it mite be? Is there someone that knows bout salmon faverolles or 5 toed chicken breeds that can give me an idea?
 
What color is their skin? The only 5 toed bantam breed on Ideal's website is Silkies. I don't know of any hatcheries that have bantam Faverolles, and CaS is right, the chicks would be yellow.

Sultans also have 5 toes but would have a crest as well as the beard and muffs. They would be white or yellow as chicks. Does the chick have a beard and muffs? What kind of comb does it have? Does it have a crest?
 
No muffs, beards, or crests. It's a little bit yellow but mostly red. Looks just like a red cochin bantam with 5 toes. Its comb is still too small for me to see wat it could be but if i had to take a guess i'd say single comb. All i see is one knob on back of comb and bottom part is sticking up just tiny bit. Dont think i noticed 5th toe before cause it was so tiny. Its skin is pink. I got a couple of silkies with it and i knew it wasnt those cause their beaks and toes are black. This chicks beak is a red-brown color.

I could email u a pic but i cant figure out how to download on my page yet. It is adorable. I'm hoping its a hen though
 
Yes, it does have feathered feet. Do u think it could just be a mutt chicken or can d'uccles have 5 toes sometimes? Read that ameraucanas and polish crested chickens can do that sometimes. Looked up pics of faverolle chicks on breed chart and it lookd like one except it didnt have muffs or beard
