YES, that's it! It's a Delaware that she looks like, not a Columbian Wyandotte... thank you! So Lucy (NHR) could be her mother, huh? I could see that, Lucy is a big girl too. Her body type is very similar to Molly's as well.

Now to officialize the answer you can get her blood for some DNA tests.

For some reason I must have bypassed the fact that NHR was on the list. . .

Or maybe I didn't. About how "laced" is your rooster? If he is pretty poorly laced, as most hatchery Wyandottes are, then there's really good chances the mom really is an NHR. She sure is gorgeous though! Because otherwise, a laced bird x columbian bird should give some poorly laced birds, usually white with black speckling and dotting here and there. . .


I myself have an interesting white EE who's mom is a Polish, dad is an EE - Yet her leg color and body type do NOT make sense or match up for either parent.

I can see my DH letting me cough up the dough for a chicken DNA test... just the thought of that makes me

Both my NHR and SLW are in this pic (they're both molting right now so they look pretty sad)

wow! She really looks like my light brahma!
she is sure georgous! and of course a keeper~

I can't help you much, but silver laced carry the columbian color gene so that would be from dad.

I cant help you at all because I would have guessed delaware but she is a beauty.
