The shop guy said it was an EE but I knew it was most likely not, so what is HE?? He is very timid and friendly! Look at those great legs!!

This was his baby pic!

he appears to have one yellow leg and one more whitish. He kind of looks like a speckeld sussex without the speckles.

LOL!

Oh come on, anyone else???

 

[turtlebird]

what on earth is a chimera/mutt?

 

[SIMPleChick]

I dont know. When I posted his baby pictures people said he could be a chimera where one side of the body looks different than the other, a genetic thing. Or just a mutt from breeding, but from who???

chimera is a siamiese twin chicken. Rare as heck, and most are lab created, but this one looks dead on for one. And that's my bet.

Here;s an article.
