Supposed to be a FBCM?

[FluffyButtTikiHut]

Hi everyone! This sweet little girl is Madeleine, she's 12 weeks old and she is supposed to be a FBCM, but she looks nothing like my others! Any ideas? Thank you!

Sapphire Olive Egger yessss! The tuft is the giveaway! Thats crazy they told you FBCM soo different. Anyway, extremely rare. My hatchery didn't specify lineage.
I've got one... Miss Vickie, so fun she loves perching on my head! I think mine is 10-12 weeks too. I was supposed to get a hand-picked mixed flock of 6 new hatch chicks but she was already flying the day they came home! April 10th. Can't wait to get those green eggs!! Enjoy!!

She definitely looks like my Madeleine...the only difference I see is the color on the legs & feet! Such pretty little hens. I'm looking forward to the green eggs too!

Yes, I have one of these also and I knew that Madeleine was a different breed almost from day 1, but I just wasn't sure what she was!
