What Breed is She?

[AnneGirlGG]

This is my free pullet from Meyer Hatchery. She's 4 weeks old now and growing fast.

She's really pretty, and really sweet. I think maybe she's a Golden Buff? Which i think is Meyer's version of a red sex link, but that may be incorrect. There are 3 of her as a baby, and then several of her today.

Any thoughts are appreciated!

Looks like some sort of production hybrid.

Thanks. That is my guess as well, and why I was thinking Golden Buff. That is one of Meyer's biggest sellers and their production hybrid. The description says they're also known as Cinnamon Queens, Red Sex Link, etc. And that they have RIR and Leghorn in their heritage. I appreciate it!

It looks like a production Rhode Island red to me, not a red sex link. Not enough white for that.

Thank you! The dark in her tail made me wonder that as well.
