    I need answers, my chick seized, & died😭.

    What breed is this gray hen chick?

    We got this little gray girl on May 19, 2020 from Murray McMurray Hatchery in a group of assorted layers. Can anybody help me identify her breed? These pics were taken this morning, 05/ 21/2020. She is about 3 to 5 days old. It looks like her legs might be turning gray. Thank you.😊
