Hi. This is just my opinion but maybe a black australorp? my black australorp has the same feathers with that greenish tint.

Hopefully your Australorp has a single comb though, which this little lady does not.

yes! mine has a single comb! I did not notice that this girl did not! my apologies.

No problem. I can't quite tell what comb the OP's pullet has (and it's driving me nuts) but it for sure isn't a single.

I wondered if that was possible. I'd be thrilled to get some green eggs! She's about 4.5 months, so I guess I'll find out soon!

All I can say is....highly doubtful she's a pure breed. Meyer's Black Sumatras are lovely, not at all poor quality (though there may be exceptions).

Stunning girl.

She could be a generic black sex-link, I ended up with one from a Black Australorp bin last year. She does have that white on her chest but they can vary greatly.

Yet again, though, Australorps and Black Sex Links have single combs....unlike this pretty girl. It's hard to tell!

It took her long enough, but she's an Olive Egger! Thanks to everyone for helping me figure this one out!
