Is this a California White?

[nuthatched]

I say she lays brown eggs, but here is a pic of some brown eggs that Ginger (our ISA Brown) laid... and then Pearl’s egg. I thought it was brown, maybe that’s not an accurate description. Does that help any with narrowing down of the breed?

She's a mix.

Looks like she lays a light brown egg
I'd agree that she looks like an Amberlink.

She is very pretty but definitely not a California White.

I got 4 of them, kept back the 2 with the most black spots. I got them from tractor supply too labeled as CW pullet. Maybe just tractor supply quality CW lol this is Pigpen

A California White shouldn't have any red at all.

They are a cross between a White Leghorn and a California Grey (which is a cross between White Leghorn and Barred Rock) -- no red anywhere in their genetics.

Well tractor supply isn't a real worthy place to rely on breeds being true. Either way, mine lay good. So that's all it matters to me!

I want to say that my batch come from Hoover hatchery. If I got back and skim my messenger, I could probably find their packing slip. My friend works for TSC so she always let's me know what's comes in before they even come out the box!

What color eggs are you getting?


This fall I picked up my order that included 3 CW. Now at 14 weeks I am 90% certain 2 of them are Austra Whites. I didn't get them from TSC. Mine were ordered through my favorite feed store. I think mine were substituted by the hatchery.
It happens. If I had more room I would still seek out my CW's....

Pigpen lays me an off white egg (not snow white, but like a dirty white). Dirtybird is not far from laying. So I'll know in couple more weeks on her.

Interesting! Glad to see another chicken that looks like mine! Does she lay the light brown eggs too? I wonder what hybrid they are??
