What kind of hen is this?

[Southernchickens]

Does anyone know what kind of hen this is? It lays brown eggs.

I don't know, but I'd squawk too, if you pulled on my tail!

Anyway, here's a bump and I hope you get an answer.

I wanna guess black sex link, but thats just a guess as I am kind of new to the whole chicken breed thing.

I agree- black sex link (AKA Black Star) They can have varying degrees of red/gold around the neck, she is on the "more" side. Pretty girl!

thanks everyone. She doesn't like the camera much

Black sex link, and I bet she dislikes having her tail held more than she dislikes the camera.

That doesn't look like a black sex link to me, I think its a mut mix maybe of one.

Here is a pic of a very gold black sex link (5 months old)
