What breed could this black and white chick be?

[HenriettaPizzaNolan]

Hi all. I know it's pretty early to know for sure what breed she is, but I can't seem to figure out what my 2 week old chick Ursula is. What breeds have black and white chicks like this? I got her from the bin at Meyer Hatchery. All of the black breeds I looked up from Meyer be black and yellow as chicks (Australorp, Jersey Giant, etc.), not black and white, or just look way different. Her feet are dark and regular colored on the ends. Her comb is dark (so far) and does not seem very long or pronounced like my other chicks'. Her wing feathers that are coming in are jet black, but there is one white one coming in on each wing as well. Here are some pics:

Since it's probably too early to know for sure, my question is: what breeds have chicks that look similar to this? Easter Egger? Some sort of Marans? I'm new to chickens so anything helps! Thank you.

Many of those breeds can have black and white or black and yellow.

For example, look at the Black Australorp pictures & video on McMurray's website:

Given the toe color, I think Australorp is more likely than Jersey Giant.

Thanks! Yeah seeing that, it seems like the Australorp is a definite possibility. I've always wanted one, so that would be really cool. So far, it seems like olive egger, australorp, and black split to lavender orpington are the top contenders.

Hello again. Ursula is now 4 weeks old. Here are some pictures of her from today. It seems all her feathers are coming in black and her legs have turned fully black. What breed does she look like to you guys? Australorp?

Australorp still seems likely to me, unless she grows up to lay olive eggs

 

[HenriettaPizzaNolan]

Yes, I still think she's a pullet.
And I think Australorp is still the most likely breed (assuming she lays brown eggs when she grows up. Eggs that are white, or any shade of blue/green/olive, would prove that she's something else.)

Thank you! I was thinking Australorp too, but she just doesn't look much like the other Australorps I've seen on here at this age. The pullets I've seen at this age seem to have more of a comb and wattles. But hey, maybe Ursula is just a late bloomer.

So glad you still think she is a pullet! We have bonded a lot so I would be sad to have to get rid of her. We are not allowed roosters in my city. She is very cuddley and hops up on my lap to be pet. I've never had a chicken who does that before.

Olive egger?

 

[Silviaschicks]

My guess is either olive egger or black split/chocolate orpington

She looks just like my olive egger as a baby, who also came from Meyer. My other guess would be a Black split to Lavender Orpington

Here’s a pic of my OE as a chick

Looks similar with my boy who's a black cooper
