What breed of chicken might this be?

I plan on buying this little baby and keeping her as an indoor chicken!

She is a pullet and from a 'mish mosh egg collection'. She seems to be a white chicken and appears to be getting barring on her wings. There's a huge possibility she's a mix of things, but I'm just curious as to what other people may think :)
 
It is in the awkward stage between chick down and juvenile feathers, so it is pretty hard to say what it may be.

I too am seeing a lot of white, but that can change as the other feathers come in.

And there is no guarantee this is a she. It's too early to tell.

Being mixed, it will be hard to tell its temperament. If it is a White Leghorn mix, it may be somewhat flighty and not ideal for indoors.

If you want to keep it indoors, and need a hen, you might want to consider another bird such as a small bantam like a Silkie or Bantam Cochin. They are very docile birds, small, and need less room to exercise as the larger fowl do.

Remember most chickens really like to scratch all day long in the dirt, so no matter where you keep it, you will need to give them lots of stimulation to be happy and healthy.

My thoughts.
