I am not certain, but I do believe that may be true for some breeds. I do know that standards for breeds can be different bases on the country you live in. . I love this website. I can talk chicken to folks all around the world. Nice to meet you.

The ISA Brown is not a breed in any case.

ISA is a company, a Hendrix Group Poultry Conglomerate producing product for the egg laying industry.

ISA is the company name and the "Brown" is just one of their various products. Not a breed at all. A commercial product.

Also, after looking closer at your pic, I believe she is a sexlink? Am I correct? If that is true, different hatcheries name their sexlinks something different. Our red girls were called Bovine Browns. Not a very sexy name.
