Who is this mystery chick with feathered feet?

[hkeibard]

Breeds like Brahmas, Cochins and Silkies are generally sweet and easy going, so I am not surprised they win hearts. If you keep a dry coop and run there really is no problem with feathered feet.

Great, thanks! I make at least a dozen (or several dozen) new discoveries every day with these little cuties.

That’s a cute chick! Looks to be a partridge Cochin.

Hi - I have an interesting looking one week old mystery chick that came from Meyer Hatchery. It is one of the two "assorted rare" from Meyer Hatchery. Per their website:

Possible breeds include: Ancona, Andalusian, Wyandotte, Delaware, Dominique, Jersey Giant, Brahma, Partridge Rock, Light Brown Leghorn, Hamburg, Sussex, German Spitzhauben Appenzeller, Buckeye, Sumatra, Cochin, Polish, Marans, Faverolles, Welsummer, Exchequer Leghorn, Sultan, Ameraucana, Blue and Lavender Orpington, Heritage Barred Plymouth Rock, Mottled Houdan, Easter Eggers, Lakeshore Eggers, Green Queens, and others as they are added to our rare breed offerings. Different colors of the same breed will be counted as separate varieties.

She's got feathered feet and quite the spunky personality. A name contender was Olivia for the Olivia Newton John style leg warmers, but based on the spunk being demonstrated my husband suggested (Margaret) Houlihan.View attachment 2397688
It might be too early to tell, but any guesses as to what breed she might be?
