-I'm a breed that originated in the 1900's.
-Modern research has proven that I'm not actually from the country I obtained my name.
-I contain Malay game fowl in my ancestry, that shows prominently in my high-carried stature.
-I lay poorly, but my eggs are light brown. I was more intended to be a table bird.
-I'm known to be extremely cold hardy, due to being heavily feathered and small-combed.

What am I?

[BirdNut]

Nope, and nope.

If you need another hint, I can try to find one that won't totally give it away.

Serama?

Seramas don't contain Malay ancestry, as far as I know. And this bird is intended to be a table bird, so it certainly isn't a pint-sized bantam.
