Hello, i’m new to chickens and this is my first chick. I’m pretty sure it’s a female, (if not please correct me), but I’m not sure what her breed is.

I just got her from someone at the flea market two days ago. I’ll have to go back and get another this weekend, hopefully i can ask then. Thanks for answering.Where did you get her? The longer you wait to get her another flockmate or 2, the harder it will be. I recommend doing some reading on raising chicks. There are many great books and articles to get you going. She could be many breeds, that's why understanding how you aquired her will help narrow it down. She could also be male or female, hard to tell at this age.
I’ll try to get another asap, ty for answering!!maybe a buff orpington.
please get him/her some friends, chickens are strictly social animals and can die because of loneliness. Even as house pets, they instinctually require companions of the same species (can be a different breed depnding on temperment)
That's a great idea. Possibly you'll get one of her OG flockmates, she'll be so much happier. You're going to want a heat source too. And I hope you're thinking about the outdoor space for them when they're bigger. They grow really fast!I just got her from someone at the flea market two days ago.

Yeah, that was the plan! Once I get my second chicken, i’m planning on getting a coop for the two of them in our backyard and a proper heating source. Super excited!!That's a great idea.

I would say a Buff Orpington!
