Found this chick in a parking lot, any ideas?

[horsekrazy74]

Had a friend drop this chick off at our house a few weeks ago because they knew we had chickens after they found it peeping loudly in a parking lot. We ended up giving her to a friend who had baby chicks at the time. Any ideas as to what she could be? We first guessed turkey, then quail, and now I think shes some type of chicken. She is the brown ugly one in the middle of the lavender orpingtons, anyone have any input!?!?

I would guess some kind of game hen.

Agree a game hen.

If you think she's ugly, send her to me! I'll put her to work raising babies to her little heart's content when she's older

Haha! She's cute in her own little way, but I was SO happy to have found her a home where she was with babies her age, she fits into this little flock so well I have heard!

I don't think she is ugly at all

Most of the posts I read about a wandering chicken seem to end up as game hens. I too rescued a game hen when she was about 12 weeks old. I like to think of them as the gypsies of the chicken world or maybe the rebels.
