Picked up this cutie from Tractor Supply, so you already know it’s a total toss-up. It was supposed to be an Olive Egger or Jersey Giant (my guy couldn’t remember which bin he picked them from while I walked away to fill out paperwork, and they were too cute to put back).
They’ve got a wide, bumpy red comb coming in (maybe walnut?), black feathers with thin bright orange stripes, and a little orange coloring on the head. I got four! I know 2 for sure are olive egger hens, and the 3rd is definitely a Jersey GIANT! Those thick thighs
!
Any breed guesses? Or should I just embrace the mystery?
