I have a 4 mos old Production Red pullet and she is a beautiful bird- I just wish they were a little more up front with what they are selling. Plus my pullet was 7 wks old when I got her- so I didn't know what she looked like as a chick.

The pattern looks alot like a RIR, But really light.
Hatcherys are known for their birds being diffrent in colors and combs/feet. none *Purebred*. but my RIR are ALOT darker.. This could be a New hampsure red.
