What kind of barred hen is this?

[skya328]

My friend has a barred bird. For a long time she assumed that it was a Barred Rock. This hen is over a year old and lays white eggs. She's a bully (kind of like my BR hens!) I went to visit yesterday and took these pics. Her wattles are much bigger than my BR hens, and her dark color is more of a dark brown instead of a black. Do you think she's a BR crossed with something else? We're curious to see what the BYC experts think!

Here are a couple pics of her.

She is a leghorn, maybe an Exchequer and Barred rock cross?

Possibly a barred Holland. I think they lay white eggs.

Barred Hollands have red earlobes.This hen is California Grey or Production Black (Tipes of production Leghorns)

White earlobes, white eggs, her size and her comb and wattles say Barred Leghorn.

I agree with this! That comb screams Leghorn to me!

Looks like a leghorn to me... but it could just be a barnyard special.

Thank you for all the replies! We hadn't even considered a Leghorn! That's got to be what she is.
