I know here that with 4-H that all the kids get their birds at the feed store and show EE's as Ameraucana's so I think she will be fine entering the chicken in a local 4-H show.

It does happen I think all three are great looking roosters, on EE's it is so hard sometimes to tell the hens from the roosters at times. I love EE's just got 2 new babies in April from the farm...

Hard to say from that photo, it is blurry. They look like Blue Wheaten Ameraucanas, however if you got them from a hatchery or feedstore, they're EE's. If you cross them to any other breed but Ameraucanas, they're EE's. So yes, crossing to a Cochin will indeed get green egg layers...
