What type of chicken is this hen is?

That actually makes a lot of sense. She's also really big compared to my wyandottes.

She is really pretty!!

Looks like a poorly laced "Black-laced Red" Wyandotte, produced from a Blue-laced Red Wyandotte breeding to me. She's a bit larger than I would expect but her comb is practically perfect, her feet and legs are yellow. I don't see anything to indicate that she is a cross. If you can obtain a Splash BLRW cockerel, they would produce 100% Blue chicks, but I'm not sure how their lacing would look.

Okay thanks, I originally thought she was a wyandotte but her size was what made me think that she isn't. She's huge compared to my wyandottes.

are you're other wyandottes hatchery quality? Where did you get this one? That could explain it, since heritage wyandottes are bigger than hatchery.

I got her from a lady that was trying to get new homes for 3 of her hens.

Yeah if she came from a breeder vs a hatchery that would explain her size.

What ever she is, she's one beautiful looking hen.
My rooster is probably excited over that bird!

Maybe a Wyandotte/austrolorp? (How do you spell "austrolorp"?)

FYI: Australorp
