What kind of bantam?

[alexysmommy]

I got 3 straight runs from the feed store yesterday, any guesses on what this one is? It has black skin, 4 toes, and its legs are a bit furry. It is about 2 days old. Thank you for any help!!

Hum. It does NOT look how I picture Silkie chicks, but black skin means a Silkie. Perhaps a pet-quality one?

Don't think it's a Silkie. It doesn't have feathered feet, no fifth toe on either foot, and the legs are yellowy orange instead of black.

Kinda looks like mine. I was told it's an OEGB.

 

[alexysmommy]

Yeah I wasn't really thinking silkie either, although the black skin threw me off. ty for that pic! It does look very very similar to yours

It's definitely not a silky. Silkies have feathers all the way down to the toes.

not a silkie... perhaps a mixed breed? i have some like that....
