Easter Egger or Orpington

[LaLeLuNurDerMondSchautZu]

Hi there
I bought this girl at the end of June and the prior owner stated that she thinks she is an Easter Egger but I have a couple black spangled Orpington hens and their body shape looks just like her.
What do you guys think?

You’re welcome! I had one that unfortunately died unexpectedly. She was a lovely curious being, very sweet natured. Still remember how funny she looked when she ran for the meal worms, reminded me of a lumbering bus!

There are just so many amazing breeds.
