We have 6 chickens and trying to figure out each breed and gender.

Can you confirm this is a Barred Rock Hen?

 
She actually looks like she could be mixed a generation or so back, not sure with what. Or maybe just a less-than-stellar hatchery bird.

The wavy comb and kinda muddy barring are what makes me think not purebred.
 
Many of McMurray's BR hens have that wavy comb. All of my friend Kate's McMurray hens did and I have the progeny of those hens. One has a super wavy comb, my Amanda. She looks like a hatchery BR hen to me, but yeah, she could have something else in there somewhere, too.
