Does she look like a breeder or hatchery bird? The feedstore owner claims a "breeder" regularly dumps birds off at his store. His has a row of cages full of all different breeds. Buff Orpingtons, Buttercups, Silkies, etc. Most are Roos though.
I never had Phoenix hens but they do look similar. Maybe yours is a mix. I have 4 OEGH and 3 look distinctly different. as the first 2 are like twins and I cant tell them apart.
