Welcome!

That seedling looks like a monocot. Chenile plants are dicots. Did it ever have a pair of little leaves?

Growing Chenile plants from seed might be disappointing because they are dioecious (there are male and female plants.)

Not Chenile.

A single blade of grass?

I would keep it just to see what it turns into.

Any thoughts out there?

Looks like a grain... Bird feeder?

I would expect chenille seedlings to resemble other acalypha seedlings... For instance... These copper leaf acalypha.
