What breed of bird is this? I got a 'grab bag' of purebred hatching eggs. It is 3 months old already, hatched June 29th, and still is not fully feathered. It was very naked for a long time compared to the other hatchlings the same age. It is 4 toed, feathered shanks, yellow legs

i think its a golden brahma because they take a while to feather and they loose all that gold on there back and new ones come im not entirely sure though
Its either a Golden Laced Cochin or a Golden Laced Brahma, though I've never seen the latter variety/breed before. A photo of the comb would help; Brahmas have pea combs and Cochins have single combs.
The color pattern is Golden-Laced. Depending on the comb type, it could be either a Cochin or a Brahma. A Cochin has a single comb, and a Brahma has a pea comb. Pretty bird!
Well, judging by this photo, the comb is a single-comb. So your chick is a Golden-Laced Cochin. The comb is somewhat developed/red, so I'm going to say cockerel for now. But post new photos in a few weeks; by then, its gender should be more obvious.
