Thank you very much, I got it from the local farm and fleet and they had it listed as an olive egger but I’ve learned to not trust what they say.I can't point out the exact breed, but it's a hen! The main way to identify the gender of chickens is looking at their neck/hackle and saddle feathers (the feathers near the back of their body on a rooster, before their tail feathers start and they slightly drape down) Roosters will have pointed neck feathers and will flare them out when angry or simply fluffing out his feathers, usually called a "neck umbrella". Their saddle feathers will also be pointed like their neck feathers and will drape downwards. And, a rooster will also have larger, brighter red combs and waddles than a hen. You can tell this is a hen because her neck & saddle feathers are rounded, not pointed. Her sickle/tail feathers are also not arched, and are rounded, which is another sign that she's a hen. As for the breed, it looks a bit like my Easter Egger & Welsummer Barnyard Mix, but I'm not totally sure! She may either be a Welsummer, or a mix of two or more different breeds!
