We were given this hen and she is a game hen we just don't know what kind.

She doesn't look like a game hen to me, since she has white earlobes--game birds have red ones. She looks exactly like a Light Brown Leghorn.

You know I thought that and I said I noticed the white and didn't think they had them , then I edited, then I looked them up and it looks like one, but you could be right. My brown leghorn don't look like that though!
 
I guess I am wrong! :(

I don't mean to contradict you, but that is unlikely. The bird in the photo has yellow-ish legs, a floppy comb, large white earlobes, and appears to be standard-sized. Dutch bantams should have slate legs, don't usually have lopped combs, have smaller white earlobes, and only come in bantam form. My avatar is a pair of show-quality Light Brown Dutch.

No, it's fine. If I'm wrong I want people to explain to me why I'm wrong instead of just saying nope wrong! :)
