    Long blue legs, very small black single comb, gold laced, very skittish. Not sure what color ear lobes she has yet.

    What could she be?? I cannot find any gold laced OEG's or Dutch Bantams. She's not a mix, she came from TSC in the bantam bin. I think they get their birds from Mt. Healthy.

    (You can't see them well but her friends over on the right are a BB Red OEG pullet and a Silver Duckwing OEG pullet, right? That's what I am guessing by looking at Feathersite. I also ended up with a BB Red OEG roo who is so funny and tame.)

    She's not a Sebright! I had two of those in the same batch and they were totally different--different combs, different sizes, different looking completely except for the gold lacing. She also looked nothing like the sebrights when they were chicks.

    She looks like a Golden Seabright Bantam. If you go to the website mypetchicken.com and look under day old chicks you can see a picture of that breed.

    Hatchery quality birds can come in all shapes, sizes and comb types for a given breed. If the hatchery that your TSC store gets their birds from does not carry Golden Laced OEGB than I would guess she is a Sebright with the wrong comb type.

    Are you sure your TSC gets theirs from Mt. Healthy? Ours comes from Ideal and they carry Golden Laced OEGB.

    Maybe they got their birds from ideal this year then! Last year they told me Mt. Healthy, but I'm sure it could have changed this year.
