Who is this?

I was sold this chick as a Russian Orloff rooster. I honestly don't know if the guy at Ruarl King had any idea because they put similar colored chicks in the same dang bin together.

I have Russian Orloff hens at least that what I was told they are when I bought them and this one looks nothing like them

This chick is the only one colored like this. I think he's really neat but I have no idea what it is?

Gold laced Wyandotte. Could very well be a cockerel - that's a huge comb for such a youngster. Post updated pics at 6 weeks.

Update us as he grows. He is a strange lookin' little guy, even for a Wyandotte.

That comb. It looks cushion-y. Completely wrong color and pattern for an Orloff though. Also lacking a beard.

I looked at this bird and did not think Wyandotte. No part of me thought about Wyandottes until I saw your reply. That's what's throwing me. It has all the right traits for a Wyandotte, but somehow does not look like one at all.

I want to see it as it grows. If it ends up as a picture-perfect GLW I'll be confused to say the least.

I think it's the comb that's making it look off.
