Mystery Hen

[TN Chick Mom]

Does anyone know what our Lily might be? We bought her out of an Ameraucana bin at a local feed store but not sure that was right. Her comb and wattles look more like our cuckoo Maran. But we don't see any copper in her coloring. She's close but not laying yet (7 months old).

She's splash something, definitely not an ameraucana. She could be an Easter Egger.
She's a pretty girl!

Thank you. I think I finally found her. Splash Australorp. And if so, they are my two mean girls but we love them anyway. We ended up with a lot of brown layers.

She does look like one!

She is beautiful

Actually she could be a Splash Copper Maran.

Egg color will help determine variety in this case.

Yes! We are anxiously waiting. She's our oldest and still no egg. We call her Lily the last chicken because she is usually the very last hen in every night and now she's the last to lay.

Most likely a Splash Marans (no copper)

At long last... Splash Marans for the win!
