What is my "Welsummer"?

[NatJ]

At first I thought she was a Welsummer, but she looks too gamy.
I've seen pictures of chickens that look exactly like her, but I was never able to find out the breed. Anybody know?

What color eggs does she lay? Sometimes that helps with figuring out breeds.

Regarding all the discussion of Dorkings:
Dorkings are supposed to have 5 toes per foot (an extra one pointing backward.)

This bird appears to have the normal number of toes (3 forward and 1 backward), so she is probably not a Dorking.

That color pattern, or very similar ones, are found in quite a few breeds of chickens, including Welsummer, Brown Leghorn, Silver Leghorn, the Dorkings that were mentioned, Gold Phoenix, Silver Phoenix, several varieties of Old English Game (bantam or standard size), many Easter Eggers that are descended from Cream Legbars, various games, and of course many mixed breed chickens.

I don't know what she actually is, but I think the color alone is not going to be enough to sort it out. She's got red earlobes (so not any kind of Leghorn) and I think white feet (Welsummers should have yellow), and the normal number of toes (rules out Dorkings), but that still leaves too many options.

Unfortunately I'm not good at recognizing body type, which is frustrating because that is an important point for this bird.

She lays white eggs.

I looked up those breeds you mentioned. She looks the most like an OEG to me.

That rules out quite a few options (including Welsummers, because they lay dark brown eggs.)

How big or small is she? Old English Game Bantams are quite common in stores that sell chicks (which might be where the former owner got her), but standard sized Old English Games are much rarer.

But if the former owner got this chicken from someone else's mixed backyard flock, then she could be a mix (maybe part Old English Game and part something else), and we might never figure it out for sure.
