Partridge plymouth or welsummer?

[cloudstreaker]

I have a rooster and I'm pretty sure a same breed hen. I cannot decide if they are Welsummers or Partridge Plymouth Rocks. I am leaning more toward the rock. No clue how old they are, the person we got the bunch from didn't know much. They were an inherited flock.

Looks like Welsummers to me....

 

[Painted Calls]

Looks like a Welsummer pair.

Hen really doesn't look like a welsummer to me or a partridge rock. How do you know that they're the same breed?

The rooster may be a partridge rock.

Not sure about the Roo but the hen looks exactly like my Welsummer

The hen is neither. The rooster could be a welsummer but no guarantee.
The hen is lacking mahogany. And yes looks like white lobes but she isn't a leghorn. I'm guessing a mix.
That may also mean the male is too but he is duckwing and mahogany so that does point towards a welsummer instead of a mix. IMO.
Duckwing is a common pattern in many breeds and mixes so.....

The rooster may be a partridge rock.

Agreed. The rooster is the only one that resembles either of the two breeds mentioned. The hen doesn't.

So it would be a brown leghorn?

She doesn't have white earlobes like the Leghorns (looked up pics.) But her body does look similar, Ty for the suggestion!

I’m confused. I thought welsummers had red ear lobes. This is white, what OP showed. Or am I wrong?

I'm confused too! She doesn't have those bright white ones that the Leghorns have. They don't look white to me. I'll check her out tomorrow, I forgot4 today.
