I think Blackie is a Black Star...?

I do believe Blackie is a Black Star but I'm not sure. She lays brown eggs and has bright yellow toe tips under her feet!

Here's a picture of her:

Very pretty hen. I'm afraid I don't know the answer.

Hard to tell in the pic, but if she has red/gold on her neck and or chest, I would say yes. If she is solid black, then she's and austrolorp.

Yes, she does have some chesnut coloring on her neck.

I have 3 black stars. Your bird looks like one of mine named Robin because of her red breast.
One of the others has only a wee bit of red on her throat; almost all black.( lil' crow)
The third one I thought was an EE put in with the black stars because her whole head and neck is barred gold, black and rust.(esther)
But I have seen a black star pic of the week that looked exactly like her.
So there is a lot of variety in the black stars.

I think she could most definitely be a Black Star/Black Sex Link.

Yup yup, that's a black star hen for sure. She'll bury you in eggs!

Absolutely! Half my egg carton right now is from my BSL Noisette. She and Clotilde are the only ones laying right now (everyone else is either molting/too young/too old), and Nutty's are huge and super nice.
