I am a hen. What color and breed am I?

[Ravie]

This little lady was given to me today. She is 5 months old and is a bantam. She lays light brown eggs. Her single comb flops over. Here are two pictures I took this evening. Sorry for the quality. It was very dark outside.

She looks like a silver duckwing phoenix to me..she has the right coloring,comb,leg color and earlobes..are you sure she lays light brown eggs?

Here's a picture of one of mine for comparison. -

No, I am not sure. I am told they are small and not bright white. They might be tinted.

Turken Lady, yours does look like mine. Also, Roy Mustang!!! YAY!

I'm pretty sure she's a phoenix. They're an awesome breed.

She is very beautiful,by the way.

Yep,Roy Mustang and his army of tiiiny miniskirts. Watch out,he knows where you live.

Lol.

That Is a pheonix if ever saw one

She should make pretty chicks if you breed them

After looking at pictures, I think you're right. Here is a picture of the rooster. The same family gave him to me. They didn't know what he was. Could he be a phoenix too?

He's a golden duckwing phoenix,definitely hatchery quality,though. You can tell because of his tail. Although he's still young,it's more like a leghorn's. He'll still be beautiful when he grows up,though,but he isn't anything "show quality." If you breed him to your hen,you should get some nice looking chicks.

This is a what a show quality phoenix cockerel looks like. If you breed them,there's a chance you might get something like this.-

Wow, is he yours? Gorgeous! And great photography too!

Thanks.

Yep,he's mine. He comes from a breeder here on BYC..Boggy Bottom Bantams. As for the photography,you can thank my mom for that.. xDD If I try to take a picture,it always comes out blurry for some reason.

I must be bad with cameras or something.
