Any idea what breed this is?

[Emrosenagel]

so this is Husk. She’s about 17 weeks old now and I still have no clue what she is. Her sisters are clearly a serama and a cochin, but husk looks like neither. Any ideas? Her wattles are tiny compared to the other two, her comb is small and black. Eyes are very dark, long legs but not too long. I was told she would either be a serama or a Cochin. Any ideas?

Is she a standard or bantam? She could be a Sapphire Gem if she's standard sized, or possibly a mix if she's a bantam.

She is indeed a bantam

What confuses me is the black comb. Both her sisters are very red at this point, but only husks face is red.

It's due to extension of black pigmentation.

It's due to extension of black pigmentation.

But it is normal for whatever breed she might be, right? It doesn’t mean she’s sick or something?

Where did you get them from. Knowing which breeds are possible might narrow down the search. She’s pretty no matter what breed she is.

I got seven eggs from a lady in my area, only three hatched. She gave me three bantam Cochin eggs and four seramas. Four eggs were very tiny, three were about the size of my own bantam Cochins eggs. Now, she has other chickens, but apparently keeps them in another area. Maybe another one got in and layed? I could always find out what other breeds she has. I showed her a pic of husk, and she claimed she looked exactly like her gray serama hen. But husk doesn’t look anything like a serama to me.

She does not look like a Serama at all. I would ask her what other breeds she has. Can we see picture of your other two girls?

No she is not sick. Her comb will probably turn red once she is older.
