We received 16 chicks from a hatchery in April and most of them are laying now except this one...We ordered 3 BO, 3 EE, 3 Welsummers, 3 Dark Cornish, 3 SL Wyandottes (an our "free exotic chick" who may have been a polish was DOA). We lost a total of 4 chicks and culled 3 birds at 18 weeks. Based on the lil chicks we lost and what we culled, we know this hen is not a SL Wyandotte, Welsummer, BO, or cornish. We think it might be an Americauna but it isn't bearded and it has wattles. It's earlobes are also pale--not pink or red. So needless to say we are confused and can't wait to see what she lays. Anyone have any input on the breed of this pretty gal? Thanks BYC!
