What Color Chick is This Cochin?

[Painted Calls]

Just one more question, after seeing her wing feathers, what color you thinking? Or is it still too early to guess?

Way too early to know for sure.

I'd bet that's the actual dam to this baby. There's no way that first pair made a beaded chick. At least as far as I know about genetics.

@The Moonshiner, watch the video and tell us what you think.

I can't sort this out. Mixed bird crossed with mixed = ?
Too many unknown genes in play.

It was supposed to be Cochin x Cochin (photo attached)

But @Overo Mare said the rooster looked mixed. Then I mentioned the hen also has 5 toes.

Also, they recently moved a silkie x Cochin hen in the pen but my eggs should be from before they moved her in

Oh. @Overo Mare said so?
Let me ......

And pay attention.

@Overo Mare - saw a pic of a blue Mille Fleur chick that looked just like her - now hoping that's what she is
