I'm thinking she's a mix
400


Any thoughts?
 
She could be an attempt at an Olive egger, if she's an EE or Ameraucana mixed with Marans...that explains everything but the yellow legs. I was thinking maybe Faverolles mix, but then she should have five toes and she doesn't look to, and again I think they have white shanks.

Didn't even think of Brahma, but that could fit, if the Brahma parent was buff....I think you may have hit it

Do Brahmas have yellow shanks?
 
Thanks! I was just wondering - her fuzzy cheeks and legs are different than my other girl.
 
The 5th toe gene is said to be dominate but I have had it bred out of at least foot in one out breeding and both feed in two. I believe it is one of those "semi-dominate" genes.
Brahmas have yellow shanks but I would be willing to bet that the op's bird may just be a Cochin/ Americana cross. I say this only because in the Brahma crosses I have seen the feathering down the shank and on the feed was a lot less.
