Wondering what I have here

[mamachick96101]

Can you tell me what breed or mixture I have here?

she's as grouchy as she looks

 

[PrairieChickens]

She kind of looks like a black sexlink, but she has a lot of brown in her. She might be some other breed I'm not familiar with.

Is she laying yet? What color are the eggs?

 

[charger pride]

I'm fairly new to this but I have an old English game hen and the chicken you have favors the one I have

 

[mamachick96101]

Yes she lays brown speckled eggs, but they're dark like other marans that I have in my coop. She came from a bunch of chicks that were supposed to be Black Copper Marans

 

[mamachick96101]

I was telling my husband that she looks like a couple of the black sex link pullets we have. Maybe Black sex links and Marans?

 

[PrairieChickens]

If she was supposed to be a black copper marans, she's most likely a marans mix--both marans, but two different varieties. A Black Sexlink mix isn't impossible, but is probably much less likely.

She's a pretty bird! Shame she's a grump!

 

[mamachick96101]

She's very pretty! Im also wondering what breeds do not have combs because she doesnt and I had a broody hen who hatched one of her chicks mixed with a wheaten maran roo and came out with a dark brown without a comb also

Her chick:

Looks like a golden maran or mixture?
