Does anyone know which breed she is?

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

 

We recently got our 3 hens from a local breeder. We know that Nellie is a Black Rock and Lucy is a lavender Araucana, but we don't know which breed Bella is. We saw her mother and she lays white eggs, so I'm presuming Bella will do too, but that is about the most we know about her. Her mother is also quite a small hen.

She looks like my Coral who lays large pinkie/beige eggs. Coral's are a leghorn hybrid similar to White Stars and have the very upright tail, although Coral's tails are smaller, I think.

 

Here is a picture of my girl http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=485093&l=ffcf7016c9&id=663092293

 

I think they are bigger than White Stars and less flighty.

Thanks for all of your replies. :D She is a lovely looking hen.

 

Looks like she is a Coral then, I've seen lots of pictures of them and they look a lot like her. And the fact that she just flew of 7ft over our back fence and into the neighbour's garden! She's back safely now though. We were not expecting it. Will be clipping her wings as soon as I manage to catch her again!
