Michael, on my monitor, those back feathers appear blue. If they aren't, then definitely a Red Sex Link, but...enlarge those pics and look closely and tell me, ok?She is a Red Sex Link hen. RSLs are egg laying machines. )

She looks like the cross I made of a blue Orpington with my flaming red RIR/, Buff Orp hen, though I don't see that shape body on this bird. They ended up with red bodies, blue underfluff and blue in the tail, some blue ticking on the head.
That would make sense because a BLRW does look like that as a chick. I have a red hen with blue underfluff who was sired by a BLRW rooster over Blue Ameraucana hen and she looked almost identical to a BLRW chick herself.My friend told me that as babies They looked like chipmunk with a V shape on their head. Growing up they developed the salmon color feathers.

I figured you had not blown up the photo and I almost missed it myself. I'd also say a cross of two colors, certainly. I've had so many gorgeous red and blue roosters and hens come from my Blue Orp with my big red hen, Meg, both of whom are no longer with me, so maybe that's why it caught my eye.Interesting,I didn't see those feathers until I blew up the picture. Otherwise, she looked so much like a RSL that I only took a glance at her the first time. She is definitely a hen though, and a mixed breed of some kind.
