I have one that look really similar, just less red. Yours is really pretty!

I have five hens and two pullets- one seven year old red star, Luna, one white leghorn, Sage, one SLW, Pepper, one adorable fluffy EE, Bedazzle, and one black star, Buckbeak. My two pullets are Nutella, my wheaten marans, thirty five weeks, (who is yet to lay an egg!), and her best friend, Sammy, seventeen weeks.

Yup, I have a MMM hatchery EE right now that looks like that. LOVE the deep blue beard and muff!
 

We have a flock of 75-ish hens: Blue Copper Marans, Barred Rock, Red Sex Links, Black Sex Links, Easter Eggers, Tetra Tints, white Leghorns, dark Cornish, various colors of Rocks, some barnyard mixes, a Wyandotte and a little Buttercup, who's just here for pretty. 

 

Also 35 broilers plus five Easter Egger cockerels in the meat pen. But they won't be here long.

Yes, I have one with the same basic pattern! Meet Chichi! I wonder if anyone knows how you get this color, Chichi is the sweetest and most personable girl I have. This photo is about 4 weeks outdated, I will try to get a new one tonight.  What color eggs are yours laying? This girl has probably another month to go before I find out.

mmhm.. but mine is lighter and does not have a beard.  You can barely tell her head is gray in this pic but it's gotten darker and she has a completely red breast now with some gray lacing like the others shown.

What a beautiful color combination with the blue head/neck and cream and red body.

 

This brings up a question I don't know where else to pose:  Can an "easter-egger" include any breed combination mixed with Araucana that lays colored eggs? 

 

I'd really like to know, and information out there in goggle-land is very hazy on this.

Can't stop at just one species, breed, color... I'm happiest sitting in my bunny/bantam chicken pen just watching their world go round.  My Pinterest stuff: /http://pinterest.com/parkerfree/ where I show the randomness of my life and thoughts.  i  have a swap page full of good stuff: http://www.backyardchickens.com/a/chickens-come-and-chickens-go-swapping-stuff

That's a good question I hope someone has the answer
