Think I got the wrong chicken

[wp1521]

Bought 6 cuckoo Marans, but this one looks completely different. Does anyone know what it may be? It is nearly 2 weeks old and the wing feathers underneath are mostly white. Sorry for the poor picture.

It looks like a cuckoo maran to me... Do you have pictures of the other chicks so we can see the difference?

I don't, the are at my boyfriends house, but they all are speckled all over. This one is mostly black with the white that you see. Maybe just different markings.

No speckles at all on this one

Looks like a Black Australorpe to me. Check out my Avatar. They are supposed to be good laying hens. Let me know what it turns out like!

I will have to post updated pictures as she grows. I see the resemblance. It will be interesting to know for sure when she's older. I am not picky as to what she is.
