So this morning (literally just a little bit ago) my dad woke me up to come look at a hen in the back yard. She's really pretty and we have no idea where she came from. What do you guys think she could be? I know she's not a game. She's almost the same size as my game rooster.
Looks like a hatchery quality Brown Leghorn to me...earlobe should be more white but I believe that is what she is. If she lays white eggs...you have your answer.

She is not a leghorn, they have white lobes, not red, and she has the wrong bodytype. I agree that she's a hatchery quality Welsummer. Here's a picture of one from Feathersite:
