What breed is my hen?

[summerb123]

Plus when I purchased her she was labeled as a hen

People will lie they will do anything to get rid of an unwanted Cockerel

The point of gender was informational to the OP, because it definitely looks like a cockerel. But, i defer to the egg.

Pictured below are bantam cochins of mine, a very young male in front with a much older pullet behind. The females don't get combs that large, even at laying age. But with foot feathers as abundant as the one in question, and the yellow skin, it has to have some cochin mix. Probably Orpington, as those hens combs do get a bit larger than cochins.

No, she is definitely a hen. She lays eggs. And I don't think she is a Cochin, as we have a black bantam Cochin and she looks nothing like her.

Have you actually seen eggs come out of this bird?

Have you actually seen eggs come out of this bird?

Apparently she was quarantined, so I belive so.

Hello, I have a bantam hen that I recently purchased but I just can't seem to figure out what breed she is. Please help me out. She has super feathery legs.View attachment 1122283

Bantam buff Cochin rooster. (In my opinion). Handsome guy you have there!

I'm not sure if anyone asked this: Can some Bantam Buff Cochin owners see your egg pictures? Thanks!
