This bantam chick is just over a week old and I'm wondering what kind it is...I ordered assorted bantam hatching eggs from Meyer Hatchery....this chick has black legs and orange toes...it is also clean legged ....any ideas?

Don't think it's any australorp because the wing feathers that are coming in are white and black, and I thought australorps where pure black.
 
Its not an austrolorp because it is a bantam and it came from a white egg.
 
I looked through meyer hatcheries clean legged bantams and the pics of the chicks and the only breeds that look somewhat like my chick is:
1. Black Rosecomb
2. Barred Old English
3. Black and Grey Japanese

And maybe the Barred Rock Bantams
 
White egg, not a barred rock. No rosecomb, so not a black rosecomb. That leaves Japanese or old english, but I don't know if they lay white eggs or not. I'm guessing Jap... those are some cute, short legs.
