What breed of chicken is this

[TSW99]

This bird was sold to me being labeled as a wellsummer chicken but doesn't look like one to me any ideas on what breed it is

Well, definitely not a Welsummer - is the comb a single comb that is just flopped over in this shot or?
I would lean towards a New Hampshire red........

 

[TSW99]

Yes it is a single comb just flopped over

 

[TSW99]

She layed the brown/tan colored egg

Any other thoughts on what breed is this

I agree, it looks like a New Hampshire Red hen.

My guess would be a New Hampshire or Rhode Island Red crossed with a Buff Rock. She looks too light in color to be a purebred New Hampshire, IMHO. I also don't see any black speckles in her hackle (neck) feathers. She looks a lot like my Rhode Island Red x Buff Orpington pullet, except mine has the white Orpington legs, hence my guess of Buff Rock instead of Buff Orp.

Where've you been?

Anyway...if the bird came from a hatchery, probably a New Hamp.
