What breed is this?
Our take
Have you ever found yourself scratching your head over a peculiar chick that just doesn’t fit the mold? That’s exactly the case for our feathered friend here, who hails from a local hatchery and was sold as a Bluebell Egger. Initially, she seemed like a typical day-old chick—so much so that we thought she was an Ameraucana. However, as she’s grown, her unique appearance has left us baffled. With each passing week, her quirks have become more pronounced, raising questions about her true identity. The first photo captures her at just a day old, while the subsequent images showcase her transformation over the weeks. Join us in unraveling this feathered mystery—what breed do you think she really is?

| Got this chick from a local hatchery, sold as a bluebell egger. She seemed fairly normal as a day old chick (we thought she was an ameracauna), but as she's gotten older shes looked stranger and stranger. The first photo is her at a day old, the next two are a week or so, then the last three are today at about 3 weeks. Googling so far has been fairly unhelpful and she definitely doesn't look like our other ameracauna. [link] [comments] |

- Mystery Chick IDThis chick came out of a Tractor Supply bin labeled Barred Rock Pullet, very obviously not, but any guesses what it could be? All black feathers and feathered slate colored legs has me thinking some type mix of Marans. At 8 weeks is bigger than the Silver Laced Wyandottes I purchased at the same time. The comb seems odd to me, doesn’t look like any other chicken I have. Is also very aggressive with one of my 10 week old Easter eggers but mostly ignores all the other chicks in the run. submitted by /u/biskets4all [link] [comments]
