Bought from Tractor Supply, she (or he?) is about 6 weeks old. The last pic is when it was a couple days old.
I originally guessed Australorp because I know TSC sells those, but it seems too light to be a black Australorp and too dark to be a blue Australorp. I’ve also looked into the possibility of it being a Sapphire Gem, specifically a male Sapphire Gem because of the barring on the wings, but I was under the impression that male SG’s have a white spot on their head when they’re born because they’re sex link, and this one didn’t have that. So I’m at a loss what it could be!
