What kinda of chicken is this??

[Camilleschicks]

I am new to chickens I have been raising them for 10 weeks. I thought one was a blue americauna but I didn’t know anything about chickens to begin with when I got them. I have 3 speckled Sussex and one That I’m not sure of. Would jus like to know what kind of chicken it is.

Welcome to BYC. It is very likely that bird is a barred rock.

Hello and welcome. Looks like my barred rock. Sit a spell pull up a chair and learn about all things chicken.

Thanks!!! I’ve been so excited for Blue eggs that I guess she doesn’t lay Blue eggs does she.

She is our favorite hen. At least now I know. I really appreciate this forum. Can’t wait to for them to start laying eggs but for now they are a joy to watch.

Hello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
Barred rocks seem to be notoriously friendly chickens. I have a hen and a chick version. They are both the friendliest of each flock.
They will continue to be a joy to watch. It is their best feature!

She will lay beautiful brown eggs.
