Hello, I was gifted this hen and would love to know what breed she is. I also have a picture of the father if that helps. I dont have any info on the mother. First picture is her.

Agree, likely mixed breed. Reminds me of a Yokohama or Sumatra with the tail. Maybe a mix of this? Beautiful bird nonetheless!😊
 
They resemble White Phoenixes to me, though that tail is definitely angled too high for a proper Phoenix chicken. Maybe Phoenix mixes? That does look like a BBR Phoenix hen in the picture behind the father.

Editing to add, they could just be hatchery quality Phoenixes, too. Cackle's White Phoenix page has a picture of a male with a high tail angle on it.

The person who gave her to me believed the father is Onogadori but it makes sense it might be a long tailed chicken mix!
 
Interesting, Onagadori wasn't even on my radar. They do look very similar to your bird and the father, including with the higher tail angle, so it seems that could be a possibility!
