Please post photos at "what breed or gender is this." They like to see head shots (showing comb) and also standing profile, to check for other gender & breed characteristics.

Welcome to Backyard chickens.
 
Hi there and welcome to Backyard chickens! You definitely have a hen there. Were her wing tips white when she was little? That is a telltale sign of a Black Australorp. I would go with Black Australorp, unless she is a Jersey giant. You can post in this page for further verification: https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/15/what-breed-or-gender-is-this. And here is a picture of my Black Australorp as a pullet about your chickens age:

Hi and welcome to BYC. I agree with D/Diva that posting on the breed / gender thread will be helpful to you. If you take a pic with the chicken standing naturally, rather than holding it, it would be great (but not necessarily easy, i know

).

Welcome to BYC! It's great to have you.

I agree, definitely post in the breed/gender forum with better photos. From these photos I'd guess you're dealing with a Sumatra (that chick's comb is definitely something pea-rose like) but it's hard to be sure without seeing the entire bird.

Oh, I forgot about those, you are probably right.
