Different clucking sounds

What colour are her earlobes? Red, or white?

I do not know. I think I might have noticed the contrast if they were white when she previously came pretty close to me. I'll have to see if I can get close enough to see for sure if and when she returns.

Hmm. Looking online I see that the Brown Leghorn earlobes are white, but on this one I don't see any white, more like a pale grayish. Even though it's dark brown and with cool golden feathers around the neck.

Welcome to BYC!

Red earlobes could mean she’s a Welsummer.

Most chickens can fly if they’re in the mood, especially the lighter breeds. My Orpingtons think they can fly, but it’s more like hurling a brick

Yes! Unless there are others that are brown with those golden neck feathers, I think you nailed it. Seeing this one actually fly really surprised me since I didn't think chickens could fly more than a few feet and even then barely off the ground. But thank you for the information. Take it easy...
