Breed Identification Please

[Simms Chickens]

Can anyone please help identify our breed? She’s a 27 week old Bantam.

 

[Crazy for Chickens!]

Where did you get her?

 

[Simms Chickens]

At a feed store.

I think she may be a Pyle Dutch Bantam

 

[Gray Farms]

Pattern doesn't if a Pyle. But I'm thinking she is a Dutch Game. I'm thinking a buff spangled maybe but I'm not sure. Her pattern is not really mottled. She's fairly close to a Gold Necked pattern. But I've never seen this pattern in Dutch Games before.

Dutch bantam is probably right, but she's not the red pyle variety. She's buff with spangles. Sometimes that is called Chamois, but I am not sure in this case. The color name is a mystery.

Is there a buff version of exchequer? I have several similarly patterned seramas.

 

[JedJackson]

One thing is for sure-- this is a very, very unusual bird to get from a feed store. It would be interesting to know where they got them from.

When you say Dutch Game do you mean Dutch Bantam?

At the feed store, they had marked the incubator as Brahmas. The next time we visited the feed store, they had set aside what they were calling “Show chickens” that had come with the shipment by mistake. This is what made me wonder as she doesn’t quite resemble a Brahma. I wanted to throw this thread out there in case she is not a cold hardy breed.
