What breed is this hen?

[craftymama86]

I bought her yesterday and the lady told me she's an Amish hen.

I couldn't get pics of her legs, sorry.

Looks like a black sex link to me

Is there such thing as Amish breed chickens? I haven't heard of them..... What breeds are black sex links?

There's such a thing as a black sex link raised by an Amish lady

Also, I don't know any Amish people, but I am having a hard time imagining an Amish lady using the words "sex-link". Maybe it's her way of giving it a more 'polite' name.

They can also be called Black Stars.....

She does remind me of a black star ,but the ones I had where more red in the hackles not golden. Either way nice hen hope you enjoy her.

No, she does not have feathers on her legs.
