Not sure what breed my hen is

[Lexielad]

Possible breeds: Silkie, Polish, Cochin, Isabar, legbar

Please comment what you think. When I bought her the guy told me she was mixed with a silkie, but unsure if that is correct or not

That is probably correct.

Silkie-mixes usually have normal feathers rather than silkied feathers.

Silkie-mixes often have many of the other traits Silkies are known for: dark skin, crest on the head, feathered feet, extra toe on the back of each foot, odd-shaped comb, sometimes muff/beard on the face. (Not every Silkie-cross has all of those traits; some just have a few.)

Possible breeds: Silkie, Polish, Cochin, Isabar, legbar

Do you know what color eggs she lays?
If she lays blue or green eggs, she has Legbar or Isbar in her background.

A Silkie-Cochin cross seems likely from her appearance, especially if she lays eggs that are some shade of cream or light brown.

She lays small bantam sized cream to light brown eggs. She also has 5 toes on each foot. Her comb is also weird looking(kind of wrinkled and short)
