Surprise Chick Breed Guess

[Elmcnam]

We ordered Red Rangers for meat hens and took the Murray McMurray surprise offering. I’m guessing this little one is a australorp, probably male. Any other guesses?

Never mind, changing my opinion to barred rock Should know that one, as they were the first chicks I kept

Cant tell breed yet. But its so cute. Can you update when its feathers start coming in?

 

[Elmcnam]

Of course

 

[Ilovemychicks08]

Of course

I was going to say it looked like a mix but im not sure so i will wait for the update.

I’ve changed my opinion so many times now on this chick’s breed and gender. Part of me is thinking some Easter egger/ olive egger and a girl now. It’s definitely got some brown and gray in there, and a few feathers showing those colors. Thinking it’s got a pea comb.

I think you have a EE. To early for gender yet.

I’ve kept Easter eggers before. Olive eggers are apparently similar , coloring makes me thinks it’s an olive egger, . I’m also thinking female based on my previous EE chicks I’ve kept. I’ve had three EE roos before. One was very roo like early on, but the others weren’t as obvious . Only three weeks, so definitely early .

Its definitely probably a olive egger or easter egger and its pullet so far but update when it is 5 weeks.
