Can anyone tell me her breed?

[thechickenchick]

A neigbor offered me 12 free hens and one duck. All are Last Spring hens so it was a great deal

I have searched through this section looking at pictures and just can't figure this one out. I am hoping you can help me

She has a double comb. She does not seem small enough to be a bantam but she is smaller than the BRs and Leg Horns.

She's a Sicilian Buttercup. Besides hatchery quality/stock, they're very rare.

Wow! Thanks I had no idea. I assume all of these are hatchery stock

Does she appear to be of better quality?

They're all hatchery stock in the photo, but really, if it doesn't matter to you then all is fine.

It should generally only matter to those who want to breed, show, or preserve the breed.

It certainly doesn't matter to me. I assumed they all were anyway, besides like I said they were free, she was just tired of them. I accepted them sight unseen and had no idea what to expect. I was excited to get a few breeds that I didn't all ready have. I am enjoying getting to know them. Thanks for your help

She's a Sicilian Buttercup. The combs on the roosters are spectacular. Comb and type rule out Campine.
