I have a beautiful red pullet here that I am absolutely lost as to what breed she may be. She is a rich deep red almost a mahogany color. She is a standard size. The varieties of chickens I had ordered last year are as follows. She is supposed to be one of these:

White rock (obviously not)
Silver laced wyandotte (again not)
Buff cornish ( not)
White jersey giant (not)
black australorp
blue andalusion
lakenvelder
ameracauna
barnvelder
welsummer
cuckoo maran
mottled houdan

I also hatched out some of these:
Carmel queens
lavender orps
blue orps (all of these guys died)
salmon faverolle

I am thinking about the only ones it could possibly be are the ameraucauna, but she seems alot bigger than the rest of the ameracauna, the barnvelder or the welsummer, or possibly a carmel queen. I will try to catch a pic of her as soon as my camera is working again.

I forgot to check out the comb!! Duhhh should have had that one in there too. Will check it out and then post that. The others I have have no other coloring except the carmel queen. She is as far as I could tell that pure mahogany red. Very dark rich coloring to her!! She is the only one out of all my chickens that looks like this!! The other carmel queens are fairly light colored. Oh and no muff or beard. I think she has a single comb, but not positive. Will post when I have another good look at her.

Found my ancient digital camera and amazingly the batteries still work. I managed to get a few pics of her. Her shanks are yellow, she does have some black coming through in her tail, and if you look closely she almost looks to have a real light lacing look to her? In pic #4 the one right behind her is a carmel queen. What breed could she be? 096


What breed could she be? 094

What breed could she be? 091

What breed could she be? 090-1

What breed could she be? 095

I also have this muscovy that I am not sure if she is a drake or duck, if anyone can help out!!

What breed could she be? 093

Hope someone can help out with these!!

When I ruffle her feathers up she is a light red/buff color underneath. I actually got pecked three times trying to do this! She is a fiesty little girl. LOL

I had been leaning towards her being a carmel queen, but when I spoke to TruNorth she said they were not normally that dark. I don't have any intention of breeding her, but will probably use her for laying as she is pretty, and usually nice to handle. Being I don't really know what she is and it is honestly a guessing game, I would not be wanting to mislead anyone as to what she is.
