A more current shot of Morticia and Tooty Bell the Wyandottes.

The one that's standing looks like one of my chickens! What kind of Wyandotte is she?

She is a silver laced. She's coming off of a hard molt, so her feathers aren't 100% back to normal.

Ok so then my chicken is a Silver Laced Wyandotte! Thanks for telling me that! I was asking around for which breed she is. Here is her picture:

Your chicken isn’t a Wyandotte, she’s a very pretty mixed breed hen. Definitely has some Wyandotte in her though.

She's pretty, and certainly has the lacing! But I don't think she's a wynadotte because she has a straight comb. I think Barnevelders and Orpingtons can be laced like that, too. Is she a mystery hatchery chicken or an unknown barnyard mix?

Are you saying that because of her comb? If so, I have a hatchery wyandotte with a single comb.

Her coloring is muddy too, though I guess I’ve seen that in hatchery Wyandottes as well. I suppose she could be a hatchery Wyandotte, even though she doesn’t exhibit any breed traits (but this is pretty typical of hatchery Wyandottes.)

Oh, so she's a MIX! this is my first year owning chickens!
