Black hen with "gold lacing"?

I have 2 of them they was sold to me as sexlinks but I cannot find a blk sexlink as beautiful as my Rowtel and Flowtel.
So I googled it and found them........They are Gold Laced Wyandottes.
 
Okay, I think I copied the right link... I thought I had a more recent pic of her, but I guess I don't. This is from when she was about 6 months old. She died at a year old, she basically looked the same, except all of her feathers except her head & tail feathers looked mostly like the ones on her back just infront of her tail. Her legs were always way more yellow than they appear in the pic, its not the greatest I had of her. Idk what I did with the others. :-/

Coloring wise, to me, she looks most like the 2nd pic, but still different & much smaller bodied. She was always a slender bird, just slightly beefier than a Yokohama.

Thank you again for all your help!
Soggone shame she died
 
Hi, I'll get a pic up soon, but right now I'm waiting to get my computer back from the geek squad, I'm doing this from my phone. This is something I've been trying to figure out for a while, so I'm hoping for some help in the mean time.

About 2 years ago I bought 3 3 month old hens from a farmer who placed a large order through McMurrary. I got a Golden Comet (red sex link), Buff Orpington & what I was told was a Speckled Sussex. The man had ordered Ameracaunas & got sent about 50 of these "Sussexes" instead. At the time her body was all black & her head was yellow. As time went on it became obvious she wasn't a SS. She was a slender girl, about 5-6lbs. Short single comb, very yellow legs & beak, I think she had white skin. She had all black feathers, but they had like a gold lacing at the ends. Kind of like a GLW, but in reverse. She laid eggs (starting at about 7 months) that were on the smaller side, very round with almost no point, a very light brown color & very glossy. She also had an awesome personality! She was my "helper" chicken. She was super fast & a great flier. A predator some how got her May of last year & I'd love to find out what she was & get more. I know she would have been something that McMurrary carried 2 years ago. I asked the farmer that I got her from, but he sold them all before they grew up, he just thought they were SS. I don't think she was a mix because he had a bunch of them that all looked exactly the same when I got her. Does anyone have any ideas? Any input is greatly appreciated!
when posting a picture on a computer you can actually drag the picture right out of the folder and drop it in the text box, it will automatically add it to your post.
