Need help identifying rescue chicken

[Loud Barn Farm]

We just got this little girl today and we're having a hard time figuring out what breed she is. Any thoughts?

 

[RockerHen]

not sure, but she looks a lot like my half large breed (probably rir) half oegb girl. different comb, but similar color pattern.

 

[RockerHen]

oh and

 

[Loud Barn Farm]

Thanks Rachel! They sure do look alike. It never occured to me that she could be a mix breed. She's so small and spry!

 

[RockerHen]

You're welcome

I've found most of my mixed breeds to be the most colorful and active out of all my birds. And, as this little hen is about to be, they sometimes make great mothers!

 

[hdowden]

looks like a bantam crele oegb

 

[Loud Barn Farm]

hdowden...I think you're right! Mystery solved in my book. Thank you SO much for taking the time to help me out

You have a Crele OEGB hen

 

[RockerHen]

How strange. I've never had a crele bird, but I have two mixes thay look very similar to the color. Mine have a more laced look to their feathers, however.

I love Crele, the coloration is especially beautiful on a cock.
