Received from Meyer today. It was their Rainbow Layer pack so it could be any of their breeds. It is very very white (even more white in person than in the photos) and tiny about the size of my bantams when they were chicks. It is not yellow like I would expect from a chick that is a white chicken breed, but white white. Its skin around its eyes and its leg color are a redish orange. Its eyes were closed almost sealed shut when it arrived. I put terramycin on it right away and they are starting to open a few hours later. I was thinking the reddish around the eyes was from irritation, but the legs are fairly reddish orange too. I am thinking just a very runty Leghorn? It's still much whiter than the white leghorn chicks I have had. You can see it below in with the others it is hard to miss lol
