    Breed and gender? I would love any help I can get!

    I have been studying these pages for weeks...time to see if I have learned anything!This one someone said was an EE but the egg assortment didn't included ee's(or hatchery advertised amerecauna's) so the only guess I can make is maybe speckled Sussex?
