Is there such thing as a Grey Rock?

[@[email protected]]

On Friday, I'm trading my 1 yr old White Leghorn for an 8 month old Grey Rock (or so I've been told). The owner saved her and her sisters from someone who intended on putting them in a soup pot! I haven't SEEN the bird yet, but I'm told she's a Grey Rock. Would that be a cross breed? She lays light brown eggs pretty regularly.
Thanks!

There are two kinds of Rock someone would call "grey" . . .

The Silver Pencilled Rock

The Barred Rock (most likely, as they're VERY common)

Thanks! That's what I thought. I'll post pics once I get her here, bathed, and blowdried

There are lots of gray rocks. I dig them up in the yard all the time.

Sorry. I couldn't resist. I love bad jokes.

I think it could possibily be a Silver Penciled Rock or a Barred Rock.

But I did find some Grey Rocks,

Here is one of my Blue Rock hens

Ah, didn't know Rocks came in blue. . . Well then that's another possibility.
