What breed is this?

[prose15]

I bought 6 chicks from Orscheln Farm and Home on the last Monday in May. 3 are Barred Rock, 2 are Rhode Island Red, 1 is "Rainbow Assorted" She is yellow in the front-quarters and white in the hind-quarters. I have no idea what breed she is. (she is the one in the center of image)

Probably an Easter Egger.

Welcome to BYC. She looks to be a mix. Most chicks labeled as "rainbow assorted" are bred mainly for egg production but not aesthetically pleasing to look at.

Thanks for your help

and is there any way it might be a buff orpington?

Looks like a production red to me. Ours have the whitish butts like this but head is hard to see.

If it has a single comb(the regular type like on rhode island red or barred rock) probably one of those red sex links. If it has a pea comb plus a beard, easter egger.

She has a single comb (similar to my Barred Rocks and RIRs) and no beard that I can see... if it helps, she is ten weeks old today.

Then I'd say production red, comet, AI Red or w e they call from different hatcheries.

I have a picture from when she was a week old.

Looks like a buff orpington chicken to me. Good luck!
