Is Poppy an Icelandic?

[deidreg]

I just brought home a pullet I thought was a Favaucana. @OhZark Biddies took a look, and suggested she may be an Icelandic. The farm she came from does have Icelandics, so it's very possible. She won't be laying for a while, but her egg color will help me figure it out. In the meantime, are there Icelandic owners out there who can weigh in?

She could very well be! There is a lot of variation in Icelandic's, but she looks like she could be one to me.

Apparently Icelandic's are rare outside of Iceland, so idk. She could also be a Hedemora.

I’m not familiar with the breed, but there are some pictures at this link that look very similar to your hen
