Bad hair day

We spent a lovely few hours at Hesket Newmarket show today. We popped into the hen tent for a look and this is the first bird I saw. I have no idea what breed it is but it defiantly caught my eye. Difficult to get a good shot because of a) the light background, b) it was in a small pen, and c) it wouldn't stay still.

I think I would change my hairdresser if this is what they did to me before a show :) Sally it is natural colour there was more than one like this as well as some white ones. @julienne1 You could be right I don't know a lot about hens other than they lay eggs.

Interesting capture, how different it looks the more I look at it!
