Delaware or Columbian Rock

[TheDuckGuy]

So my uncle got some Leghorn pullets from TSC. Turns out this little girl got mixed up in there. I wouldn't have her if I hadn't been taking care of her and the leghorns if it weren't for my uncle being injured. She would jump on the front of the brooder and look at me all precious. Any way. She has the same coloring as a light sussex but she has yellow feet. She has no bearing like a Delaware but otherwise has the same coloring of a Delaware. But looks more like a Columbian rock but multiple people says she looks like a Delaware

Here is a picture I will be getting some more tomorrow

I definitely have to get more pictures it's hard to tell on this one plus she's at the age of a laying pullet so she looks full grown minus the size

Columbian Rock.

Tractor Supply gets their birds from Hoover’s Hatchery which does not carry Columbian Rocks so she would have to be a Delaware. Hatchery birds, especially Hoover’s, do not always look like they should. If she had feathered feet or a rose comb then I would have said she could be a Light Brahma and Columbian Wyandotte as they do carry both of those breeds as well but she has the wrong comb type and feet for both of those. So that just leaves Delaware. I loved my Delaware. One of my best layers right up there with the Leghorns so you won’t be disappointed. She is pretty!!

But she’s not barred?

Delaware’s aren’t barred ???

This was mine.

Are the hackle feathers barred?

Even badly barred?

That's one of the main markers for a Delaware.

And while we are at it do you think she's a boy she does crow but even my silkie roos crow is more manly she hasn't laid but has no hackel feathers or saddle feathers
