What Breed Is This Friendly Hen?

Thanks To Everyone Who Has Helped Me Determine Her Breed!

I have a little girl who looks a lot like that, that I finally determined was a Fayoumi. Well, about 75% sure, anyway. I'll try to put a picture of my pullet...

I have a very similar looking hen, with the pea comb and green legs who is a cross between an easter egger and a brown leghorn. She lays the palest tinted green egg--so pretty! That pea comb is usually associated with green or blue eggs, it's odd that she lays white eggs.

I believe the Fayoumis only come in the silver. Are you sure your chick isn't a gold Campine?

You're right. She must be a Campine. I got my chicks at Atwoods and they did a very lame job of labeling the varieties, but Fayoumi was listed. Their chicks come from Ideal and somebody stole the ID book. I thought I read that Fayoumis definitely came in Golden, but I was wrong. Whatever she is, she is flighty and quick.
