The kids picked chicks from the feed store, I think they're about 9wks old now... Don't exactly recall, but this little thing has me stumped... Im pretty sure its a bantam but what I don't know. Help?

My chicks were solid black then later developed some white and red/brown feathers. Possible an Ameraucana, Easter egger! Are a winter breed and lay beautiful eggs. With pink and blue shells also lay regularly during the winter

but this is a fraction of the size of the others, were yours small as well?
 
My Ameraucana hens are incredible smaller then all of my other flock members! Makes them that much cuter

Ameraucana only lay blue eggs. You probably have Easter Eggers, a mixed breed probably with Ameraucana in it.
