What breed am i? (Mystery hen)

[magicpigeon]

I bought her from a friend originally who bred RIRs and some kind of black chicken and apparently she was the smallest and was being attacked

I'm not sure how useful the information below is but...

She laid white eggs
Started laying very early..i can't remember exactly
She laid 5+ eggs a week
She wasn't a broody hen
She was very friendly but also could be aggressive toward my dog

Thanks

The color is RIR, but she has white ear lobes and pale color legs. She must be a mix of some type.

I would say Red Leghorn but the body type is RIR. Good mix of something...

I was thinking maybe ISA brown but I'm new to this thing...

I'm thinking neither of the chicken breeds people mentioned. . . First, she lays a white egg, which takes a couple generations of a white layer to get going. Second, that body is very broad, and has a lot of shoulder like a Cornish would. I'm honestly thinking she's got some game behind her. The fact that her comb has practically no points and gamefowl lay very light, almost white eggs. . . I'd say she's at least half (cornish? or something else)

As rare as Oriental Gamefowl are, I've actually met a person before who claimed to breed Rhode Island Reds. . . . They were Thailand gamefowl crosses.

I've also known a family who claimed to have Buff Orpingtons. Don't know how they considered them so, because their chickens were Wheaten Asils.

Her face does look coronish- like to me, Illia.


She's a cute hen, at any rate.

Are her eggs white like store eggs or do they have a tint to them? I do agree she looks broad like a Cornish, but she is holding her wings out which for me distorts her figure (

).

 

[magicpigeon]

As white as silkie eggs, if that's any comparison

They were medium sized...and yeah, like store eggs

HAL_9000- LOL! You mean the yellow one, the brown one or the red one???
