i think forth is a white rock.

As for the second one.. Where did you get her? that will decide if she is a rosecomb, rosecomb cross, or a game hen.. I think she's a rosecomb cross though.

1. No Idea. (Looks Like It Has Game Blood)
2. Asil Hen (GameFowl)
3. Delaware Hen
4. White Rock Hen

Asils don't come rosecomb, if it's a game it'd have to be spanish or a spanish cross.. Plus it isn't exactly "Muscular" or big enough to be one.


THANK YOU BY THE WAY FOR SAYING GAMEFOWL. Most would have said fighting chicken or "gamebird" (pheasants, quail, etc..)

I hate when people say gamebirds too!!! It isnt a game bird!! And not all are "those fightin' chickens" Some woman wouldnt buy my game hens one time just cause they were "those mean 'ole fightin' chickens" I was like..."mam I dont fight my hens, and they are GREAT setters, and will out set your chickens over there"

I got her from a friend of mine who has a ton of game animals. I actually rescued a whole lot of them from him- about 40 birds in total. But they are good people so we didnt call it rescuing its fostering till they are in a position to care for them again . . .

he did bring me a white faced spanish roo as well... could that be the spanish blood you're referring to?

He did also mention rosecomb but IDK who he was talking about.

Are the game animals going to "ruin" my standard lines? I've got a flock of hens with two roosters anyway but I was looking forward to standard eggs.

I guess I could put them on Craigslist- but I wont put them in as game bc people around here want those nasty fighting birds for just that. and i wont play that game.

Oh my! I WANT that 2nd hen! She's gorgeous!

No i mean Spanish gamefowl.. They come rosecomb.. But she doesn't really look like one so i'd expect she is probably a game cross.. She looks like she's heavy in rosecomb bantam blood.
