Hi :)

We recently re-homed 5 hens that could no longer be looked after by their previous owner.
They consisted of 3 Silkies, an Arucauna and a small , as of yet unknown hen. I was hoping someone here would recognise the breed of her?

What I know:

Shes approximately 6 months old
Weighs 500g
Flies like a wild bird ( she sits on the low hanging tree branches on our land occasionally )
Lays small white eggs.

Here is a photo of her and a young Silkie we have for size comparison:

I agree. I think she's got Silkie in her - the hairdo and bluish earlobes. The feathered legs remind me of my Silkie/Pekin cross rooster. She's a pretty girl!

The photo doesn't do her justice but she definitely has blue lobes coming through yeah :) Shes a very sweet hen.

The flight is the confusing part for me lol. She can fly 10-12 ft up into a tree.

Here's the whole group: They look like a rockband haha. :D
