Smaller Surprise Chick from Murray McMurray

[LifeSimpleAndSweet]

Either she is a banty or a runt. I checked the site and do not see a banty breed that looks like she does.
She is about 5 weeks old.
All of these birds are super flighty, so forgive me. It was the best shot of a dozen that I took.

If you can post a clear photo of the comb, that would help. I think it is either an Easter egger or a Sicilian Buttercup. Buttercups are a small breed, Easter eggers can be.

I'll try for a better photo.
I went out and, for the first time, just watched them all in the pen.

This chick seems to make for its smaller size by picking on the biggest chicks. I have RIR pullets and Pearl Leghorn pullets, plus a couple of PL cockerels.

So I put in some tree branches to distract them and give them more places for evasion.

I'm thinking you are right about it being a Sicilian Buttercup. I think the comb is doubled.

Here is a photo from just a few days old.
