Can someone help me out with the breed of my chicken?

This is Radar, she is a bantam and a very good egg layer. When I purchased her I was told she was an Ancona which I know she is not after I looked up the breed. She is so friendly and always the first to come say hi and also a bit of a lone ranger amongst the chooks. Her massive comb makes me think she could be a bantam leghorn but have not seen any with the urban camo colouring. I bought her because she looked so different and could not walk past her.

Based on the two photos you have, her build reminds me a lot of Old English or American Game Bantams. Granted, I don't have a lot of experience with either breed and could be way off-base, but you should take a look at photos of OEG bantams and see if they strike you as similar to your gorgeous gal.

I agree with the game bantam. She could be a mix also because I've never seen that color in OEGBs.

Yeah, I searched and couldn't find anything in that coloring. Her comb and wattle are also more developed, but the body is classic game bantam.

Thanks, she does have the posture of a game bantam and a really long tail. I will have to take a side on photo, her comb is now a lot bigger and falls to the side like a Leghorn.
