Thanks. I dug a little deeper and discovered that she could be a Bovan Goldline.
Anyone? Does that breed ring a bell with any of you?

Thankyou everybody, all answers appreciated.

I think you'll find that your other hen is a warren, ranger and any other name [there are loads] basically a hybrid made from Rhode Island red x light sussex. Its the breed that ex-bats usually are, like mine here.
