Bantam chickens.. a friendly discussion about all pure and mixed breeds.

I like the little edge on all her feathers. In some light she looks light purple. Sometimes just a greyish white. She really is pretty in real life..

I'd just call her lavender. My Silkie rooster SnuggleBug is split to lavender, & shows lavender in his wing feathers.

Thanks so much. I'll definitely ask if she is a Sebright too.

Okay, there are Rose combed OEGB varieties, but they are rare.

Hopefully the lady accidentally sold me one of her Sebright Pullets she was refusing to sell me any of them..

Good to know...

The reason they're rare, is that rose combed breeds seem to have a lower fertility rate.

Also would explain her flighty temperament too. She acts more like Lisa my Golden Sebright and nothing like the Rosecomb.

Yep. Mine are pets so not an issue here.
