Okay, so I ordered Rare Breed Assortment and “production” mixed “bags” of chicks this spring. Along with 3 EE, 1 Delaware, and 1 GLW.
This gal has me scratching my head still! She’s super soft and almost looks frizzled? Lightly feathered feet (nothing like the clouds of white feathers on the white Cochin I was sent), my first thought was Light Brahma. Then, someone mentioned BCMs are supposed to be feather footed? Meyer Hatchery’s photos show clean legs on their BCMs.
So, best guesses? Maybe a silky got in the breeding pens?
