What breed is my chicken?
« on: May 02, 2012, 10:58 »
Hello all,

I was wondering if anybody could tell me the breed of my chicken? When I bought her I was told she was Bluebelle, however, I believe that my other lady who is supposedly a columbine is the Bluebelle, as she certainly looks more like one! I doubt she can be a columbine as she doesn't lay Blue eggs, but rather large brown speckledy eggs?!

Can anyone enlighten me? I'm just a little curious, and after searching many breed databases I'm still non the wiser!

Thanks
Charlotte

Hi Charlotte

I am no expert but her markings look similar to a Welsummer. Have a look at the link below:

She looks lovely whatever breed she is!

Thanks Helen!

Yes she does look remarkably similar to that welsummer and lays the the same eggs as described. You may have solved the mystery!

Anymore insights are welcome.

Thank you again x
