What breed is this hen?

[The Happster]

She is very pretty. I didn't recognize the name so had to look them up. The first breed you listed we call black sex links here and the second breed we call black copper marans.

Right. That makes more sense.
I was confused. I'd never heard of those breeds either.

From a bit of searching, it seems both are strains of Black Sexlinks. She would be a Bovan Nera seems to also be called a Black Rock and are RIR/Plymouth Rock and have yellow skin. Maran Cuivree are Marans/RIR and have white skin -> slate legs. I can't guarantee I am right on the mixes, but this is what I'm seeing online. Knowing this, she seems to be a Bovan Nera/Black Rock

Wow this has helped a lot. Thank you for taking the time to research this. When people ask what breed she is I’ll have fun confusing them

I think Black Rock and Bovan Nera are the same, just something to do with trade name issues
