Mystery Pullet?

[solidstate]

This one was given to us out of the SLW bin, but they didn’t know what she was. They had only pullets that day.

The other breeds that day were supposedly Easter Eggers, Welsummers, Barred Rock, and assorted bantams. Any ideas? I’m leaning toward maybe Easter egger, if they’re right about what they had that day.

Not a barred rock. Not a bantam. Could be an Easter egger possibly.. but i‘d say she’s a mistake. Most likely a mixed breed that got put into the bin with them.

Thanks everyone, I’ll try to update in a while, when she feathers out more. Or lays an egg! I’m curious to see what I’ve got here lol. Hopefully she stays a pullet at least!

Very unusual.

Whatever she is, she's really cute. I would say she's some type of mix or like someone else said, an EE.

Front chick is pure barred rock. Yellow beak and legs

Yeah, probably not BR, looks pretty different from my BR chicks a few years ago too.

Aw she’s getting so pretty. That could be silver lacing. I’m not really familiar with that color or breed.

I was just going back through the feed stores Facebook page today. Supposedly they had Silver Laced Sussex that day as well. Is it possible that this bird is a SL Sussex?

I think this could be the answer. Just googled them, ans the feather pattern and white ear lobes seem to match. Lots of eggs in your future Id say!

Here she is now, I think she’s seven weeks old today.

How is she doing? Mine on the right is 8 weeks and looks similar - I think they're both SLS!
