Found a chicken

[TGreen1783]

A friend of mine from work (she lives in city) found this chicken. She gave it to me (live on 2 acres and have chickens).

What is it? Hen or roo? And when can I introduce it to my flock (4 hens and 2 roosters).

Thanks for the info.

She looks like a beautiful hen to me!

She's a Salmon Faverolle pullet.

She'll need to be quarantined for about 30 days before introduction.

Also, what the age of your current flock members?

Research information on salmon favorelles, especially the temperament aspect of the breed. It's important to know in advance to see signs of problems that may occur.

I'd swear it's a young roo.

Salmon faverolle pullet! Please quarantine her for 30 days, and be careful about putting her with your chickens. I have heard that many chickens will try and pluck the muffs of the faverolles.
