what breed is this hen my friend found wandering through his yard?

[miltnerunit]

she looks like a bantam, related to Polish? She has that Sebright-y Nankin-y shape but her coloring is throwing me off. New at this, thanks for the help!

Spangled OEGB hen

forgive me...I don't even know what OEGB hen is an abbreviation for. I just have 2 Ameraucanas/Easter Eggers. No expert here...

OH! never mind -- she's an Old English Game bantam, got it! eventually I catch on! she's pretty, huh? Will she be any good at laying?

Old english game bird I think...???

 

[miltnerunit]

If she has red (it's kinda hard to see in the pic), then she is spangled. Looks like it to me. If she is black and white she is mottled. Cute!

Spangled, you can see the BBred coloring a little on the neck and shoulders. As for laying, some are decent, some aren't.
