She was sold to me as an EE pullet, but she doesn't look like any of the EE pics I've seen. She's not laying yet and her legs are a greenish color, she's about 10weeks old here. Any ideas? And is she a bantam?
Day 7 incubation shorts.

am not sure about a few of the eggs. We had them sideways instead of fat end down. :-( But we definitely saw little...
