We came across this cutie of a hen at the petting zoo put on at our Easter Egg hunt. She's very tiny but I couldn't find her breed anywhere. Her small size made her an ideal choice as a breed to have for our smaller space _ could someone define her for me please?
 
Bantam Golden Laced Wyandotte or Golden Sebright.

Just guessing.

It's hard to tell from the pic, but I believe I sea a rose or pea comb. That would lead me to believe it's a bantam gold laced Wyandotte. If you are just starting out in chickens, you can also get a bantam gold laced Cochin. They're fluffy, small, cute, and super docile. Hatchery produced Wyandottes tend to be testy, imo.
 
its a seabright if im seeing the comb correctly...can you get a closer shot of her and her comb
 
She wasn't mine, just one of the gals they had there at the petting zoo that I thought might make a nice addition, the rep didn't know either remarking "its just a chicken" *roll eyes* I thought it might be a sea-bright but wasn't terribly sure. The comb was just a small one. I went back to check my other photos, but they're all face on, no side views where it was more visible.
 
Looks like a Golden Seabright to me. I have 2 but mine are still just chicks & are still feathering in. My Silver Seabright that is about 6-7 weeks older looks a lot like that except it's white where this one is gold.
