Looks just like mine! The guy who sold it to me told me it was a silver laced Orpington, and femal, but apparently not

Female, ugh, sorry

Would also like to see this one as older. It almost looks as though its a columbian and laced mix with the tips of the feathers having some color.

I misread that as 2019. I read somewhere that SLO can throw Columbian on occasion because they have Columbian genes. Especially if they have anything else going on in their back ground...

"Silver Laced carry the columbian gene naturally (they are columbian laced.) If you hatch enough Silver Laced you *will* hatch birds that lack the necessary lacing genes and they will just be columbians."

I believe the user that posted this was actually the owner of CrazyEweFarms seen here:
