Hybrid RI red?

[tralfaz]

We recently purchased 6 RI reds at a local farm. Benni looks different and acts different from the others in flock. Could Benni be a different variety or hybrid? In particular, her comb is much smaller and lighter than the other five. She's also getting a tad larger as well. My kid calls her chubby, lol

Each of those three look like production hybrids...... aka: ISA Browns, red sex links

What does the lighter colored hen mean? Is she a different hybrid from the others?

Maybe, but there can be variations even with the same cross.

interestingly she's the only one who has yet to lay. Others have been laying over a month ago. She's my old kid's favorite a we threaten to call her a "meat" bird instead of a layer. The kid responds that she's all feathers and not much meat to her, lol
