Darker chicken looks like a 'black rock'. Mine are similar, with green tints.

Just pulled a picture off for you from google images below.

Yeah, that's what we thought. Though we're sure the breeder said Rhode Rock?
But, yes she has gorgeous green tints.

Re: My Girls.. Any idea what breed we've got??
I wonder if it's a breeder trying to create their own version of the black rock.
The link explains how black rocks are developed.
Black Rock chickens - the perfect garden and free range commercial laying hen
As the name is a registered trade name no one else can use it but there is nothing to stop them using the same breeding programme and developing their own, but they would have to use a different name.

Thankyou, again, VERY helpful.
I typed 'Black Rhock Hen' into Google images.
And then I typed in 'Rhode Rock Hen', and they both looked almost identincal!
