What in the World is Karen???

[LadiesAndJane]

I agree she looks most like a cream leg bar! Ask the breeder if she breeds Olive Eggers as they can have cream leg bar as a parent bird. Either way you’re going to have some gorgeous eggs!

What breeds did you order? Do you know what other breeds the breeder carries?

We got a Columbian Wyandotte, Black Sex-Link and Plymouth Rock. We are in WA state and it was really hard to get chicks this year. We took what was available at the time, even though they weren’t our first choice of breeds. We love them all now!

I love wyandottes! They have such sweet personalities!

Thanks so much everyone for your ideas! I’m thinking she may be a cream Legbar or some sort of mix.

She was supposed to be a Golden Wyandotte.

We were told that Karen would be a Golden Wyandotte, but obviously, she’s not. Any ideas on what she (or is Karen a HE?) is? If you look closely, you can see Karen has a small tuft of feathers on her head. These came in as soon as she lost her fluffy down. Karen is much more skittish than our other hens and her tail has an entirely different shape. Guesses!? Thoughts!?!

Crested cream legbar.
And that hairdo is just begging to speak to the manager.

She’s such a Karen.... lol

Perfect name for a nice looking cream legbar or legbar mix. May just be a slightly darker CL. I know it's not what you wanted but not a bad mistake. They're great birds. Hope you enjoy her.
