Silkie x?

[NicoleSmith06]

Can someone help me identify this cute little 4 year old hen? She had a great fluffy hat on when she was a pullet. She laid small green eggs her first year but no longer lays. She is wet in this picture so you can see her under colour. She is very passive. The blurry picture is to show size relative to my leghorn hens. What breed(s) might be comprising this cute hen? I want 10 of her.

Looks like an cream legbar/red sex link mix

What type though? Can you take a picture of it?

Her comb ends there actually. It's just a tiny forward comb.

Not a single comb, so she likely doesn’t have two single combed parents. I think a CL is a likely parent but the other parent I’m not sure on. I don’t think Silkie or Brahma as she’d probably have feathered feet. She could be a barnyard mix or attempt at a green egger. Where did you get her/what was she sold as?

That makes sense about feathered feet. I got her at a livestock auction, they could only tell me she was a pullet and nothing more. I scooped her up not knowing anything about her
