Maybe Barred Rock? Sex Link?

[ahensnest]

I thought at first she might be Barred Rock, but I don't know, she doesn't look much like the barred rock chicks I had last year and no barring on her feathers. So maybe sex link?? She's a stray chick that I picked up today and I'm just wondering if anyone knows what breed she might be. Also, how old do you think? 4/6 weeks?

She is really sweet and friendly and yes, I know she shouldn't have corn, I need to wait until monday to get to the mill so she will survive for a day on mash, corn and grass!







Thanks!

sexlink chicks don't have that much white on them. I would say either black australorp or jersey giant. they look like penguins as chicks

or maybe a mix

legs dont look right for a ba

Thank you! I had no idea since it was a random chick that my sister found roaming around her house. It could be a mix. Guess I'll wait a few more months and see what she turns into!

And you might rethink calling it a she. Those are some big thick legs, I'm thinking a little rooster.

Not a BR. Australorp maybe if the bottom of the feet are white. JG are yellow

Well darn! Oh well, if she is a he then my cousin will be happy! He likes to get all of my extra roosters for his yard My little banty hen adopted her/him and is happily mothering away

She looks like my black astralorp - they are great layers and very freindly
