What breed is this grey hen with a rose comb?

[karleev21]

I was told by a seller that she is a Lavender Orpington. I have two of them, and one (not pictured) has a beard and muffs, and the rose combs tell me they must not be full LO and crossed between something. They lay a VERY light cremey blue/white egg, the top left 3 of the carton below. I am hatching and breeding them now and would like an idea of what they are as a selling point!

She looks like my Whiting True Blue. I got her from McMurrey hatchery, she lays huge light blue eggs.

I have no idea what your hen is....
Just wanted to say that even though we're getting 9 eggs a day here I would still buy that carton in a heartbeat just to look at. Wow, what a gorgeous assortment of colors! Well done!

She has a pea comb, not a rose.... at least in that pic. I would say she's some sort of EE. There's tons of EE types out there now: The true blues, true greens, all kinds of designer names for this cross.

Thank you! I’ve worked hard with these girls and I finally feel like I’ve perfected their colorings. When I bought them from a small hatchery NONE of them laid and all had bare backs. They are happy and healthy now!

Thanks for your help!
