Had this hen come to us from the woods about a month ago. Had people tell me she looks like a cubalaya & I wanted to ask the folks who'd know.

These are the eggs I've been getting.

Nothing like a Cubalaya at all. Whomever told you that doesn't know chickens. LOL.

That is a Wheaten Game hen.

My sister ordered four bb red males from ideal. Three died and the sole survivor is not what she expected. At 9 weeks it has feathered out into an almost solid white bird with a little bit of red on the wings. Any idea what color pattern this is? Is this just an off color fluke? I tried to post a pic but failed.

it is most probably a red pile. a red pile is usualy a dom white crossed w/ a bbred so it mated to a bbred would give half and half if it is heteozygos for dom white if it is pure then you would get all red pyles

Ideal sells blue reds, I'd say its a blue red splash.

 

[cubalaya]

is it like this one?

 

[Felix1]

Yes it looks a lot like that.
