What's the weirdest mix you've had?

Here's the 1st 2.
Feathered feet.
 
A few years ago, The weirdest mix I’ve ever had was when my Black Asil hen got loose! At the timeMy Modern rooster was running around, and one bred her (I think it was Sebastian, the Birchen I had at the time) Since she was pretty wild, I decided to let her be, and a few weeks later, she was broody in a nest of eggs! Only one hatched, an he was a weird little sucker. He had the size of the asil, and the upright body stance of both birds, but somehow, he hatched with little stubby legs, like munchkin sized!! He was light grey, with black and white lacing on his chest, and a mostly white tail! His legs were bright yellow too! We named him Birdnado, (tornado) due to his stormy colored feathers. He wasn’t very friendly though, and got in a fight with another rooster, so we decided to give him to a friend.

Sounds like he was really handsome. Very unique.
 
Here's what the buckeye silkie mixes look like now. 3 look pretty much identical, so I just took pics of one of them. They all have 5 toes with feathered legs. They have pink legs. No idea where that came from as silkie has blue & buckeye has yellow.

The 4th one is darker and is starting to get a fuzzy head.
