What kind of chick is this?

[CB1]

I ordered some layers from Meyer Hatchery about 3 weeks ago. They threw in a “mystery chick”. Any guesses as to what she is? Her feathers are coming in a beautiful dove gray with some barring.
I’m guessing she’s got to be a fairly common laying breed. I doubt they’d be giving away anything fancy for free!

I don't know what breed but she's definitely cute. Did they just surprise you with her or is she one of those "meal maker chicks" you can add on

Looks like a Green Queen.

Yep, she’s one of the meal maker chicks!

I think I see feathered legs in the third photo so I'm guessing Blue Cuckoo Marans.

Green Queen is also a possibility as they come in many different colors and may also have feathered legs.

You're welcome. They're a type of Easter Egger with Faverolle ancestry.

Meyer publishes the meal maker for each week on their website. I think I found it by just googling. I was supposed to either get a BBS Orpington or an olive egger for my week and got a black Orpington.

I just googled and didn’t know that existed! It could be a cream leg bar, blue orph or olive egger then according to that website. Thanks!
