Is this hen a jungle fowl? Poor quality pic sorry

[cwc362]

I was told this was a jungle fowl hen when i bought her at the flea market-- Sorry the picture is so poor-- And if she is, are they good broody hens and mothers --Thanks

she's the one on the roost pole --the little red hen on the ground is one of my little bantie mixed pullets

I believe it is a old english game hen, not sure though. I have 4 but the picture is not to clear.

Huh she may be- I got two gray/blue hens that he said were game hens. I don't really care because i just wanted some hens that will set good . I got a whole cage of chickens for 20 bucks and they were in it. I'm trying to build a subflock of setters--that's my plan anyways--Don't know what they got planned yet though!!

Take a look at my BYC link below. I have a few red jungle fowl hens in the picture. They do come in basically two color patterns. The one in the pic in one and the other is behind her.

She's not the color of the hen in the foreground and i can't tell about the other hen.. Her color looks similar to the brown leghorn hen pics I have seen but her comb is really small but not a pea or rose comb. Her legs are a dark slate color.
Those bird of yours look really great by the way---Thanks --Wayne
