What kind of chick could this be?!?

Hi- we recently rescued some animals from a hoarding situation. They had chickens, turkeys and peacocks. Anyone have any idea what this could be? It’s much bigger than our other chicks and super vocal.

I have no idea! Keep us updated on what she looks like grown up! Very interesting. I hope someone can give you an answer!

I have a guess....I think it's a turkey. Just based on its head and beak. But that's just a guess. Hopefully someone around here will have a more definitive answer. I know there are turkey raisers around our flock here! Cutie no matter what it is. And welcome!

Edit: upon further image searches it's probably a peacock. Lol I'll see if I can copy the image and share it.

It's a chicken chick - it has a comb.

Hi there, welcome to BYC!

I agree it a chicken chick. I also see the straight comb.

I was seriously panicked for a moment wondering what's that huge red tumor/prolapse, etc hanging under it's belly.. only to realize it's you're finger!

That's an impressive beak for a chicken!

That is what is confusing us, also the super long legs and neck

I agree. I guess this might be a wait and see. I see the comb but the rest of the features are so different.
