There are lots of bantam chicken breeds that would fit the description solid black and lays a brown egg. I think a few really great pictures... including a nice head shot and nice detailed description of her (number of toes, comb type, etc) would probably be your best bet

in solving your what breed is she mystery...
Here is a fun page if you want to browse pictures of breeds http://www.feathersite.com/Poultry/BRKPoultryPage.html#Chickens

I think she is a black cochin bantam.

I will go try and count her toes...haha

Or maybe a Black Rosecomb Bantam. She looks a lot like the hens in your link.

They might be the same thing.

Hi, I just signed up and I'm new to the chicken raising process. I purchased 30 chicks last week and they are all alive. I live in Boerne, TX with retired husband, Yorkie, Brussell Griffon, Bengal cat, a herd of goats, 1 donkey, 1 llama.

Totally understand... sure hope you can make the Fancy Feather Chicken Show! It is a great show for kiddos and grown-up's alike!

Oh, and I took my son, he is 10 now, with me to Chickenstock last year and he had a blast.
