I got an assortment of bantam chicks from TSC 2 days ago, and one has 5 toes. At first i was thinking it was a silkie but then remembered silkies also have black skin... this chick has pink skin and yellow fuzz, with white feathers where you can see them so far. oh and feathered feet too...

they were sold as assorted pure breed chicks, so that is what i'm going by for now.
 
Extra toes...

Houdans?

Salmon Faverolles

Silkies

I think there is one more...

I'm getting old and have been diagnosed with CRS. (can't remember STUFF)

Sultan, Silkies & Faverolles have feathered feet & five toes. Dorkings & Houdans don't have feathered feet.
 
There are six 5 toe breeds.
Crevecoeur, Dorking, Faverolle, Houdan, Silkie, Sultan

Crevecoeur, Dorking, and Houdan are clean legged
Faverolle, Silkie, and Sultan are feather legged

Umm, no, Cochins do not. If your Cochin has 5 toes it is a mutt.
