quite a large bantam, completely pure white, naked yellow legs and a pink rose comb. She’s about 5/6 months old and believed to have just started laying. Quite sweet and honks instead of clucks. I thought it was a Wyandotte rooster for a long time but after finding some larger eggs in our boxes and not being at all roosterish, I’m not sure

She is for sure a pullet. Where did you get her? Backyard breeder would give endless possibilities, but a chick from a hatchery might be easier to narrow down the breed.

That doesn't look like a typical rose comb to me. Certainly not what a Wyandotte has.
 
I was thinking Rose comb Leghorn but don't see white ears. Certainly the body type of Leghorn. Are the eggs white?

The eggs are white, yes was thinking possible leghorn too if not for the comb.

Shes from a purebred mix of shipped eggs. Also hatched a couple of minorcas (sadly both roosters so had to be dispatched) and a white crested polish. The breeder had a huge list of different birds and was luck of the draw.

I was wondering if it could be a white Plymouth rock x Wyandotte perhaps.
 
I looked the internet. She’s unique. Her name isn’t mystery is it? Lol

She still needs a name. It was football chicken (soccer for those across the pond) because we presumed Wyandotte but probably needs a new (and better) one.

It's possible, but not if the eggs are pure white. My Wyandottes lay beige eggs. Light light brown.
Can you send a pic to the breeder? They would probably have a good idea.
