One of these is not like the other

I brought home some pullets 4 weeks ago from today, from my local Atwoods. The 3 breeds were separated at the store. All all were labeled pullets (allegedly).

They had 1.) Sapphire Gems,
2.) Easter Eggers, and
3.) Midnight Majesty Marans.

This little lady came from the Maran bin, but from day one, was a pale color when all the others were obviously black (midnight Marans). When the employee was grabbing from the maran bin, he scooped her up and I thought “why not, she’s unique and I’m ok with surprises :)” so here we are 4 weeks later.

She is the same relative size as the other EE’s I got that day, which is slightly larger than the SG’s and MMM’s that I got in the same trip. Makes me kinda think she may be an EE that slipped over into the MMM’s bin.

Curious if anyone wants to take a shot at identifying her? I can post more pictures in a few weeks if that would help. Either way she is doing great and we are happy to have her!

Thanks everyone!

I'm no expert, but I'm thinking Easter Egger because her legs look a little greenish and her cheeks a bit puffy. Sometimes Easter Eggers are white and I actually think that's one of the most beautiful colors they come in.

Whatever she is, she has an adorable face! :)

I’d guess EE. But my vote doesn’t count due to inexperience. 😂
