Answer 2

It's pretty hard to tell when they are young like that, and only starting to fledge out.  There are a lot that look very similar.

Do you know what color eggs they will lay, by any chance?  That can help narrow it down.

Answer 3

could be a black austrolorp or a black minorca

do you have a picture?

sounds kind of like my austolorp, but she doesn't have orange toes.

Answer 4
