Still wondering about this pullets breed

Barred rock cross... looks like she only has 1 barring gene... black washed legs like a rock...

And yes, a Wyandotte would have a rose comb...
Interesting, I'll learn the genetics someday. I got lost one night in light vs dark barring and gave up.

I have no experience with purpose bred meat birds but didn't think she'd be little if she was one. Didn't grow fast either.
 
She is still young, it may grow out more as she gets a bit older. The feather color and barring patterns look very similar to the cross I linked.
That link might be the cross, they look exactly alike, if only that roo and this hen could get together and make us more of those beautiful chickies!
