Hi!

I have this easter egger (?) that I'm looking to get some input on what s/he really is... She seems to have a bit of a spur (which I've also seen in my grown hens), and is a lot lankier than any chicken I've had. She also doesn't have a big muff that my other easter egger does. I think she's about 12 weeks old now. I am wondering if she has any game fowl (?) in her just from how long her legs are, or if her parents were just basketball players. As you can see, her face is beginning to get a bit pink as well. Her ears are white / grey. Her tail is upright most of the time. Her personality is pretty skittish.

I picked her up from a craigslist listing, so not 100% sure about the person's sexing (or breed identification) abilities. Any thoughts would be appreciated! Thanks.

That's a pullet. I see nothing that screams cockerel.
