What breed is my chick??

[B5eatrice]

Hi, does anyone know what breed my new golden chick is?? It was supposed to be a silkie but she just doesn’t look like her 2 sisters. They have fluff and she has smooth feathers and also different nose/tail. The breeder also had sebrights, Orpington’s and pekins so there could have been a mix up?

Maybe it's a Sebright. I'm not 100% sure. I'm not that great with discerning chicken breeds.
Soon some people will be here that know better than me.
You have some very adorable little chicks!

Thank you, I considered that 2! I’ll have to wait and see.

What varieties of silkie does the breeder own?

They buy eggs in and hatch them so could be any really. The rest of the silkies they had were all either white fluffy so we got the only brown one. (Brown and black)

But she looks completely different which makes me think she might be something different but I’m not sure?

It could be part Sebright, or have a Cochin mother.
Or full Silkie. Keep an eye on it and give us an update in the future.

Ok, thank you. Will keep updating you.
