What breed is this mystery chick?

[Woodnik]

I received 15 female chicks + 1 mystery rare exotic chick from McMurray Hatchery. Any idea what breed, and when I'll be able to tell if it is male or female?



Thanks!

No clue on breed but looks sort of like my americaunas did. Looks like female because of wings. Good luck!

Thanks for the response. What is it about the wings that you think it is female?

Here is another pic:

The wings look to be already growing fast. Pullets generally develop wing feathers before cockerels.

Wings don't exactly look female to me. But it does look exactly like my ameraucana/Wyandotte olive egger chicks. Though, I doubt that 99%.

Can you tell the comb type?

 

[ChickenGoesRuff]

Maybe pea comb? My picture resolution isnt great.

I agree with chickengoesruff. My Americaunas hade the same look as yours. This is how they look now.

Thanks for all of the replies! The chick is 2 weeks old, and seems a bit larger than the rest.

Just an update. The feathers are coming in nicely. Amazing how fast they grow!

That's a Silver Laced Wyandotte.
