Does anyone know what breed this is?

[grummpy]

Can anyone tell me the breed of this? We were at Tractor Supply getting Buff Orpingtons , & my daughter brought 2 of these home. TS didnt know the breed "they came in with the rest". HE has already been rehomed, but his sister is still here & I would like to know what kind she is. I will see if I can catch her for a photo

I think it is a roo by its coloring. Is this the one you got rid of?

the top younger pic was the roo. He has already moved away. Im not having 2 full sized roosters again. The fighting with the last one ( Americauna)brought me to that conclusion. I have a rooster (showed up as a runaway or drop off, over a yr ago..possibly a golden comet??), who guards the girls & the yard & has NEVER gone after any person. that part was very important since we have 4 local grandkids under the age of 5 who roam the yard with the free-ranging free loaders
