What breed is this hen?

I got her a week ago and have no idea what she is. I love that she has no tail feathers. She is between 10 months to a year.

Probably an Araucana or Araucana mix, I will admit I am not familiar enough with the breed traits to know if she is pure or not.

I have the same guess. Where did you get her from?

A man from a local FB Chicken page. He wasn’t sure of her breed.

I got 8 hens from him. He wasn’t sure what 4 of them were.

Hmmm, that's weird. I'm going to bet she's a mix that happened to be rumpless. Breeds she could potentially be would be Araucana or Manx Rumpy. Definitely update on egg color!

I will, if I can figure out who’s laying what egg. I have 1 of the 8 that has laid a few eggs already. But it’s been the same hen. The egg is the same.

Araucana or an araucana hybrid. They have that signature tail (because they don't have one )

I haven’t seen this hen lay an egg, but think she is laying green/blue egg. I just recently started to get this egg and I have seen her in a box and then there is an egg.

She lays blue eggs. In the picture which has 2 cream colored eggs that are not from her. The blue egg is from the hen from my original post.
