What kind of chick is this?

[RebekahM]

Hey everyone! I ordered these chicks from Meyer hatcheries, it was a grab bag of brown egg layer pullets and I just can not figure out what this one chick is. She is the only one with this white of a face, her legs and feet are yellow and unfeathered, and I am cinfused by those tips of her wing feathers being all white like that. Thank you to anyone who can help!

Looks like an Australorp, they can initially get a few white feathers which molt out after a few months.

I think Australorps too

Thank you both! I am surprised to hear austarlorp bc she is one of the smallest chicks I have, the white rocks are much bigger!

My black copper marans always start with a couple of white feathers as well... could be that. I've never had australorps so I can't compare.

ETA: Just saw the white spot on the head... I think that means it'll be barred? I'm not sure how the cuckoo gene works but maybe a cuckoo marans?

It has yellow feet and a head spot so it will most likely be a barred bird, probably a Barred Rock.

I missed the yellow feet. What type of comb. My last silver laced Wyandotte was similarly marked.
