This is a four-month old hen from Murray McMurray.
I posted this before, but I have much better pictures now.

What do you think?????? What is she?????
 
Thank you, she's a real sweetheart. Probably my favorite. I'll look up a white-laced red cornish.
 
Okay, I looked up the white laced red cornish, and my son says NO.

She doesn't have the physique of a cornish. She just looks like a regular ol' chicken, with the body and legs streamlined more like a blue andalusian or a spanish. But she's smaller than those breeds. The cornish has a compact frame and fat legs spaced wide apart, right? Her legs are close together and skinny, like Carol Burnett's.

Are there cornishes that look streamlined?

bantam cornish's are the little dumpsters with legs. Standard cornish aren't that bad.. And you probably got her from a feedstore or hatchery right? (Not meaning this in a offensive way or anything.. but). Hatcherys breed for quanity not quality.. And it is not unheard of that hatcheries do sell birds that have been crossed.. So she wouldn't look like the typical show cornish or "perfect" cornish. She is one though..
