Welcome to BYC. Your new hen is a game hen. She will eventually go broody. Then you can get some fertile eggs and allow her to raise flock additions.

She's a beauty! I hope you get her a friend. You'll get lots of good advice on how to best do that on here.

Lovely game hen, they make excellent mothers - lucky you.

Welcome! It's a crazy feeling loving these little beings. They're so sweet, and it's like a whole new world has been opened up when you learn about chickens. Or at least it was for me.

Glad you're here Brooke!

If you haven't yet, please make your chickens a FIRST AID KIT for any issues that would arise.
It's definitely better to have it and not need it rather than need it and not have it.

Also, make sure your coop(s) have a proper amount of VENTILATION. Your chickens will absolutely thank you for it!
