superjacko Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Hi, just wondered if anyone can tell what kind of chicken this is just from a photo? Thanks http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk282/sparks12345photo/8B79178E-A692-4084-8509-DCFFCE520CF7.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Welcome to the forum . I've no idea but thought I'd post the photo for you (it's lopped the head off but hopefully it's still identifiable!). Is that a couple of little chicks there too?

Mar1a Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 The front end of her looks like my bovan nera but her back end isn't that feathery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjp Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I don't think it's a commercial hybrid well not anymore it might have some in it's make up somewhere but it's more of a 'farm yard cross' I think it's dad or granddad was either a game bird or a bantam going by the tail and possibly the size through that's hard to judge in the photo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just curious, there were chickens kept up here years ago and I guess these are the decendents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
