What breed or X Breed is this little Bantam Hen?

[Candy Floss & Popcorn]

Does anyone know what breed or cross breed this little surrogate mother bantam hen might be? She is raising 10 chicks that were hatched in an incubator and are not hers. Would really value any thoughts please Thank you! Melanie

Thank you! I bought her yesterday and she has settled in beautifully. The little family are in a chicken tractor until the chicks grow older. I don't really mind what breed she is, as I would just love her to hatch some pure breed eggs I buy next time she goes broody. Just would be lovely to know.

I think so too !! Any mummy hen who just loves to love chicks no matter if they are hers or not, is a very special little hen whatever her breed
