    Could someone please possibly know this chickens breed?

    She is a medium sized girl and slightly aggressive, but I do love her. I believe her to be either an Ameraucana or an Easter Egger. Here is a pic: Sorry the pictures are a little blurry, she wouldn't stay still. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
