What breed is my hen?

[malirae]

We have two black hens that I don’t know the breed of, I know she’s not an Australorp, we have one of them and they look very different, but I can’t figure out more than that. (There are a lot of black breeds) *I will post a photo soon* pls help me out (I’m trying to figure out what my roosters and her chicks will look like)

Maybe the chicks are camera shy? Mine try to eat the lens, lol

If you're having difficulty getting good pictures try shooting video and pull stills from that. Getting mine to sit still for a picture is an exercise in futility.

Sorry guys! My sister has photos and she hasn’t sent one to me yet, I was raining yesterday so I didn’t go outside to take a photo of her

Hi! I see a pea comb and some interesting coloring. I think she may be an Easter Egger. Probably mixed with a black Ameraucana. Judging by the color of her comb, I'm guessing she's not at Point of Lay yet.

Pretty girl! She's definitely not an australorp, with the pea comb I'm thinking probably an Easter egger or ameraucana mix.

Easter egger, so she's a mutt (a very lovely one) and her genetics will be somewhat unpredictable.
