This is my lonely 8 day old chick being all big and brave in the garden for the 1st time! had to have it in a little run as the local cats were walking about!! (What is it?! white wing and start of tail feathers?!)

It now has a a friend in its brooder, wasnt really sure what to make of it though!

Well... if it is a common bird, I say it is either a leghorn, cornish X, or white rock. If it is skinny feeling and flighty it is a leghorn. If it feels like a big warm ball and loves to eat, it's a cornish X. If it acts like a normal chick, it's a white rock! It got some meaty legs there though. Wait see guessing game!
 
the smaller chick is def a cornish x but the larger one is from the mix and match so its quite exciting waiting and seeing!

its feels skinny and doesnt seem to get used to me putting my hand in the brooder so maybe that means a leghorn!
