She's a sex link production hen. There are various strains. In the USA they tend to get called ISA Browns, here in the UK, Red Sex Links. Some of the strains are Golden Comets, HyLIne, Hubbards, Production Reds. Lohmann Brown. There are quite a few variations.
I think they are lovely looking chickens. The main thing you should know is they don't live long. 4 years old is a good age for these high production breeds.
