The Moonshiner's Chick Chat

Anyways!! What do we think this little guy is mixed with? He might not have the melanistic gene because his legs seem too lightly colored for that. So, I don’t think he’s part silkie which would leave my faverolles to give him his extra toes. The feathering makes me think of my barnevelder hen…I should probably make a separate thread for this and list ALL of my hens and roosters ( 61 total lol ) and make it into one big guessing game.
