Good answers, it's none of those colours and not a maran.
not a cockeral, it's a lady hen alright

A White Leghorn
White
not sure what status means ...ex-battery?

[angieh]

Light Sussex
white with black and white barred feathers on neck and tail and red comb
bottom of the pecking order for the time being (poor girl)

You are on the right lines with status.... Not a cockeral, not an ex-battery, keep thinking... here's a couple of clues.

She is a big girl.
A well known breed.
She is every bit a lady. (what do ladies do?)
She's not white, black, or spotted.

Rhode Island Red?

Yes she's kind of brown. She is a Buff colour. Angie that should give a clue to the breed.

Come on ladies, what do lady-things do?

What do lady-cats do, that we all moan about
