What breed?

[chicknmania]

She moves so fast I can't get a good shot. She's about 10 weeks old i cant figure it out. Plus she has rooster mannerisms but I am pretty sure its a pullet. Weird little calls too. I give up. I got her from the mystery bin at the hatchery.

I think she might be an ancona. Where did you get her?

My first thought too.
What color shanks? Non feathered shanks?

they appear to be yellow, and looks to be a clean-legged breed, i’m gonna say that’s an ancona, or an exchequer leghorn

Appear to be? How are you seeing them? Is there a picture that I can't see?

It has the racy shape of an Ancona. Exchequer Leghorns don't seem to be as common. Mottled Javas have the same pattern but are plumper and more rounded in body.

OP, the chick is of the mottled color variety, and the breeds I listed are the clean legged breeds that have mottled varieties. I'm betting on Ancona.

Part of the foot is showing in one pic. I couldn't really see shanks and assumed it was clean legged but you know how assuming goes sometimes.
When I looked earlier I was in the sun so couldn't really be sure on color. Now that I'm indoors it does appear yellow.
Not that I needed to answer your question to someone else but...

I see it now! I looked 3 times and didn't see it before.

Meyer Hatchery. I went through all the breeds, I don't remember seeing that one on their iist, I'll check again. Thanks! If anyone else has a guess, I'd like to hear.

No feather shanks and yes they are yellow. Meyer does have those on their breed list and she seems to fit the description she is extremely active and curious and definitely the leader of all the other pullets that are growing up with her.
