Whats up with her head? Is she crested? It looks that way in the picture. If she is crested then I would say she is a mixed breed.
But, if she isnt, how many toes does she have? If she has 5 on each foot, I would say a silver grey dorking hen. I had two and they were wonderful birds.
 
we have know idea she missing most of her toes born that way. we got her so she would have a place to live with her feet being bad i figuered she was a mix of somthing
 
I have seen Old ENglish Game "Toppy" fowl that looked like this. If she lays colored eggs, she may be an Easter Egger/Americana cross. Is she standard size or bantam?
 
She sure is a pretty little girl, I love those little crests. She even has a nice body shape, but I have no clue what she is, other than a mix.

How wonderful of you to rescue her!

Seriously, I have no idea. But I don't think you could ever look at her and not smile!
 
Looks to me like a Polish x Brown Leghorn. She's got the body, small crest, single comb, silver duckwing color, and leg color to fit it.
