I'm stumped. This six week old SG was supposed to be a pullet but I'm not sure. I've never raised this breed before and we only got one of this variety so I don't have another to compare it to. The wattles are a lot bigger and more red than any of the others we have in this group (all the same age) but the comb is still pretty yellow and about ththe same size as my RIR chicks. Looking back at pictures from the day we got it, it appears there might have been a little bit of a light spot in top of the head but not very obvious and not very centered, not sure that matters or not. There is no real barring present on the feathers but there are some odd black ones here and there and a few grey feathers that have black patches on them. This chick is very curious and friendly to people, doesn't mind being handled, but likes to chase and jump on the other chicks and is starting to make some clucking and clicking type noises. The tail is not real defined either. Thoughts?
