What breed of chicken...

Recommended Posts

...is a standard, ex-batt hen??

 

As I said in another thread, I've discovered that Dolly is a Buff Cochin, Diana is a Black Plymouth Rock, but Barbara is an ex-batt that just looks like 'a chicken' if you know what I mean! :lol:

 

What breed are most ex-bats?? Barbara is mainly brown with white feathers on the tip of her tail and a few speckly white feathers on the back of her neck (cape).

They are usually a hybrid of rhode island red males and light sussex hens. Called a range of names depending on the breeder: ISA brown, warren, gingernut ranger, bovans goldline etc.

 

Cool! I think I'll go with Gingernut Ranger! 8)

 

Thanks.
