I don’t think this is a chicken....

bought it at an auction yesterday. Gets picked on by my flock and my bird dog wants to chase it and I roosts on the fence not in the coop with the others. And fly’s like a hawk . Any ideas????

She is a chicken... I have to say she looks like a Phoenix to me.

Welcome to BYC. As others have stated it is a game hen, and should have been quarantined before being introduced to your flock. Birds in an established flock always pick on new birds.
